Method

Combine dates and boiling water in a small bowl. Leave 10 mins to soak.
Place drained chickpeas in a food processor and pulse to a coarse paste. Add water from soaking the dates (but not the dates just yet) and blend until the chickpea puree is thick but smooth, scraping sides of the bowl a few times.
Add dates and almond butter to chickpeas and puree again.
Remove blade from processor (or transfer to a large bowl), stir through crushed Weet-Bix wheat biscuits and chocolate pieces – mixture should resemble cookie dough. Refrigerate 10 minutes.
Scoop dough with a tablespoon and roll into balls. Store in fridge or freezer.
