this week was crazy - enough to drive me to find something chocolate... but not crazy enough to break my commitment (in other words, it still had to be raw).

here's what i came up with: 

chocolate truffle nut balls: yum.

the cookie is a combination of dates, pecans, cashews, and cocoa (a long time favorite of mine).

the truffle frosting is a new invention!

cocoa, avocado, banana, dates... and to be honest, i can't remember what else!

vanilla...maybe. a little salt. and i think that's all. :)

frozen until fudgy, these little treats are divine! and without the frosting, are absolutely perfect to grab in a zip-lock bag, throw in your backpack, and enjoy during class (which is the quest of my present life - finding things that travel well back and forth to campus).  i'm considering adding raspberries to the mix next time as well, although i'm not exactly sure how. ideas??
