Ani's "Dreaming About Donut Holes"

This is a recipe from Ani's Raw Food Kitchen by Ani Phyo. I enjoy her book alot and these donut holes are one of the reasons.
They remind me of the little donut gems by Dolly Madison that come six to a package. But of course these are soooo much better. These donut holes are to die for!
Below is Ani's recipe for the coconut donut holes and right below that I added the modification for the coco powder donuts.
Also I didn't use an ice cream scooper, I made about 40 small bite-size holes. The original recipe should yield approximately 24 donuts.

1 3/4 cups almonds
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 vanilla bean, scraped
2 cups dried pineapple, soaked until soft, chopped
2 cups pitted dates
1/3 cup plus 1/4 cup shredded coconut

In food processor, place almonds, salt and vanilla. Process into a fine powder first. Slowly add chopped pineapple and dates, mix well. Place in a large bowl. Mix in 1/3 cup shredded coconut.

To serve, use an ice cream scooper or spoon to form into donut holes. Roll holes in 1/4 cup shredded coconut.

Will keep for over a week in the fridge.
Coco Powder donuts1/4 cup raw cocoa powder
Follow the recipe above. After forming donuts, roll holes in the cocoa powder.
If you can get your hands on this Ani Phyo's book I would suggest it. It's fabulous!
