Vegan Chocolate Energy Balls

Break chocolate into small pieces and add to a food processor. Process on high speed until finely ground. (Make sure chocolate was at room temperature before starting.)

Add dates to food processor and process on high until everything is combined. Add walnuts, sesame flour, flax seeds, and vanilla extract and process again until a dough begins to form.

Transfer mixture to a bowl. Form mixture into balls, adding a whole hazelnut in the center of each ball. Repeat with remaining mixture. If desired, roll the balls in cocoa powder.
