Baking has never been my forte, and despite my name, I’m much more of a salty than a sweet fan. Still, I appreciate a good brownie, and if I can make them without ever having to turn on the oven, I’m all for it. 

How to Make No-Bake Brownie Bites

First, remove the pits from the Medjool dates. You do NOT want a pit ending up in your food processor. If your dates are a bit stale or if they’ve been in the fridge or freezer, soak them in some warm water for at least 10 minutes beforehand. 

Next, throw the walnuts in the food processor and blend into a flour or meal consistency. 

Then, add all the other ingredients to the food processor and pulse into a chocolatey dough mixture. You may have to stop and scrape the sides with a spoon occasionally. 

Taking one tablespoon at a time, roll the mixture into small brownie balls. Set them on a plate or sheet lined with parchment paper to avoid sticking. 

Optional Roll the brownie bites in a very thin layer of cacao powder sprinkled on your work station to lightly coat the outside. Cacao powder is bitter so use sparsely as a coating (lighter than pictured). You can also add coconut flakes or hemp seeds. 

Chill in the fridge for 20 minutes to set or serve immediately. These no bake brownie bites can stay good in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
