What you'll need

2 tablespoons cocoa powder

2 tablespoons boiling water

2 tablespoons butter

1/4 tsp salt

50g dried cherries, chopped

30g shredded coconut, toasted

30g blueberries

75g chopped roasted almonds

8 Medjool dates, pitted and chopped

What to do

In a small bowl, combine cocoa and boiling water. Stir until well mixed and let stand 5 minutes.
In a food processor, combine dates, butter and salt, and process to a fine paste (about the same consistency of peanut butter) about 1 minute. Add cocoa mixture and process until well combined, about 30 seconds. Transfer puree to a medium bowl. Stir in cherries and coconut until well combined.
To form the bites, spray a small amount of non-stick cooking spray on the palms of your hands. Scoop 1 tablespoon cocoa and nut mixture and place it in the centre of your hand and pat down to flatten. Place 2 to 3 blueberries in the centre of mixture. Fold mixture over to cover the berries and gently roll between the palms of your hands. Roll in the toasted almonds and set on a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining mixture. Chill 1 hour before serving.
