Honestly, I don't use dates that often, since they are high in sugar and even though a dried date is technically paleo, it's still sugar.
Aaaanyway, that doesn't mean you can make treats out of them every now and then, and maca balls are pretty awesome.
Maca, also called "Peruvian Ginseng" is claimed to increase energy, stamina and sexual function and comes from the root of the Lepidium Meyenii.
Get ready to get your hands a little dirty:
8 dates, pitted
1 tbsp cocoa powder
1/2 cup almonds
2 tsp maca powder
1/2 tbsp cinnamon
1/4 cup almond butter
Blend all ingredients in a food processor, and roll into balls. Store in the fridge.
Tip: add raisins, goji berries or chocolate chips!
