1. Soak pitted dates in hot water for a few minutes to soften.
2. Squeeze out excess water.
3. In a food processor, pulse almonds, ground almonds, honey and cocoa powder until finely ground.
4. Add dates and sea salt and pulse until a thick and sticky ball forms.
5. Remove the ball from the kitchen machine.
