Instructions
  1. In a food processor combine hazelnut and figs. Process until broken down into small pieces.

  3. Form 18 round balls out of the mixture. Freeze for 10-15 minutes.

Recipe Notes

Instead of figs you could use dried dates, (in which case omit the maple syrup and add another tablespoon of coconut oil)
You could use 3/4 cup of toasted coconut flakes (in which case use 1/2 cup walnuts)
optional: 1 tablespoon Frangelico hazelnut liqueur
