Vegan Cookie Dough Balls | Healthy No-Bake Snack Made with Dates, Almond Flour + Protein Powder

Emily and Lyla Allen (known as "The Kitchen Twins") were only twelve years old when they made their first appearance on our show. Now, they're all grown up and in college. They're still cooking, though, mostly doing what they call "dorm cooking." Here, they share their healthy and super-yummy no-bake vegan cookie dough balls, which are so easy, you can make them pretty much anywhere! 

"We don't really need to tell you much more about these besides the fact that they are irresistible and heavenly…but we guess we will! Besides the fact that they are insanely tasty, these vegan cookie dough balls are packed with protein (thanks to the addition of vanilla protein powder), but also low in added sugar and get the perfect natural sweetness from the dates. We can barely wait ourselves to try them after coating with chocolate, but after letting it harden, you will not regret the little wait after that chocolate shell breaks and the cookie dough inside melts in your mouth! Now, enough about hyping these up. Time to make them!" —Emily and Lyla 

Pro Tip from Emily and Lyla: We use really good-quality bittersweet chocolate and recommend it, but semisweet or dark works here, too.
