4 ounces, unsweetened baking chocolate bar
1-1/2 cups walnuts
2 tablespoons cashew butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon salt

add in all the remaining ingredients except the chocolate & process until mostly smooth
melt the chocolate, either in a double boiler or in the microwave on 30 second intervals
pour the melted chocolate evenly around in the bowl of the food processor & turn it back on for about 7-10 seconds until everything blends together. you may have to scrape the sides a little & pulse again.
using a cookie scoop, scoop out mixture & roll into balls then roll around in the walnut pieces.
place the balls on a parchment lined cookie sheet in the freezer for 10 minutes.
if you want to enjoy them right away then leave them on the counter about 5 minutes or store in the fridge for later.
