I'm loving all the matcha-infused recipes these days! Matcha is green tea turned up a notch, and you'll feel all its great benefits.

Mix up a little raw, vegan love for friends, family or to win over a non-raw foodie co-worker. They'd look oh-so-sweet in a little gift box wrapped with a green ribbon.

Ingredients:

• 1 Cup Raw Dates
• 1 Cup Raw Almonds
• 1 Tbsp Raw Cocoa Powder (plus a little extra for rolling cookies)
• ½ Tsp Mint Extract
• 1/3 Cup Sweetened Cacao Nibs

Directions:

1. Using your large food processor bowl and blade process all ingredients except sweetened cacao nibs, until dough like consistency with visible chunks of nut.
2. Fold in sweetened cacao nibs.
3. Roll into cookie balls and dust with a little extra raw cacao powder.
4. Store in the refrigerator or freezer.

Makes about 1 1/2 dozen.
