Ingredients

1 ½ cups pitted dried dates (about 8 oz.)

½ cup creamy almond butter

¼ cup youtheory® Collagen Powder (4 scoops)

1 tsp. vanilla extract

¼ tsp. fine sea salt

1/3 cup mini chocolate chips (we used Enjoy Life) or cacao nibs

Directions

In a food processor, combine all ingredients except chocolate chips and blend just until smooth and beginning to hold together (Don’t overwork it; it will become oily and harder to handle.) (Yield: About 13.4 oz.) Transfer to a bowl and knead in chocolate chips.

Using a 1-Tbsp. cookie scoop, portion dough into even pieces. Roll between your palms into balls. Place on baking sheet and refrigerate until firm. Serve, or cover and refrigerate or freeze to serve later.
