Who
doesn't get a craving for chocolates now and then? Well, I am guilty of it and I always ended up reaching for something unhealthy when it comes to my sugar cravings until I tried these date bombs. If you like chocolate, and or coconut-based sweets, don't look any further, these bombs will make your soul explode with happiness without impairing your health. My mother is diabetic and has sweet-tooth, and she loves that she has finally sorted her dessert needs well.

NOTES
Optional:
You can coat these balls in cocoa powder, coconut flakes, or finely chopped dark chocolate bits. I enjoy them without an external coating to achieve the maximum sticky fudge-y goodness without the chewing.
