- 2 tablespoons hemp hearts
- 2 tablespoons cashew butter
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1/2 - 3/4 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions
- In the bowl of a food processor combine the dates and cashews. Process until they resemble coarse sand.
- Add the coconut, hemp seeds, cashew butter, syrup, sea salt and cinnamon, and process until a dough forms. If the dough does not come together, add some water, 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough sticks together when you press it between your fingers.
- Form 1" balls with your hands and place on a parchment-lined plate. Freeze for at least 60 minutes and then enjoy.
- Keep in a covered container in the freezer for best results, but they will also keep in the fridge.
