How to Prepare Date, Cocoa, and Walnut Bonbons
Remove the pits from the dates and shell the walnuts, then place them in the food processor.
Add the cocoa and the soy milk, which helps to make the mixture smooth.
Pulse briefly until you have a homogeneous dough that can be handled with your hands.
Moisten your hands with water and take small amounts, forming balls the size of a walnut.
As you prepare them, place them on a cutting board, then arrange the grated coconut on a small plate or bowl and roll each Bonbon in the coconut to coat it.
Place them on a tray and let the bonbons rest in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before enjoying them.
