Add the pitted Medjool dates, smooth almond or peanut butter, unsweetened cocoa powder, your preferred milk or water, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt to a food processor. Process the mixture until it reaches a uniform, dough-like texture.
To prepare for rolling the truffles, lay out a tray or large plate and scatter a couple of tablespoons of cocoa powder across the surface.
Moisten your hands slightly to make it easier to work with the mixture. Scoop up a spoonful and form it into a firm ball. Place the formed ball onto the cocoa powder-covered tray or plate.
Gently roll each truffle in the cocoa powder until they are fully coated. Alternatively, you can use almond meal, shredded coconut, or chia seeds for a different outer texture.
Transfer the truffles to an airtight container, sprinkling additional cocoa powder between layers to avoid sticking. Store the container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Share these guilt-free treats with loved ones, or enjoy them on your own whenever a craving strikes!
