Method of preparation:

1. Pour boiling water over the dates, and leave for 30 minutes – they should become soft.

2. Pit the dates, peel them, and grind them in a blender with syrup, chia, flax seeds, and a pinch of salt. Add nuts, puffed rice or oatmeal, raisins, and cherries to the mixture and mix well.

3. Next, you can form balls or press them into a rectangular or square silicone mold. Put them in the freezer for 30 minutes.
