Method
 

Step-By-Step Instructions
  1. Blend the Base: In a food processor, combine pitted dates, raisins, oats, and pumpkin seeds. Pulse until crumbly, resembling coarse sand. Scrape down sides as needed.
  2. Add Cocoa and Flavor: Sprinkle in cocoa powder, plant-based protein powder, salt, and vanilla extract. Process until sticky and well combined. Scrape sides to ensure blending.
  3. Incorporate Chocolate Chips: Add chocolate chips and pulse lightly to distribute without over-processing.
  4. Form the Bites: Take about one tablespoon of the mixture and roll into balls. Place each on a plate or parchment-lined sheet.
  5. Chill and Set: Refrigerate formed bites for at least 30 minutes until slightly firm.
  6. Store for Enjoyment: Transfer to an airtight container, storing with parchment paper between layers. They can last up to two weeks in the fridge.
