Whiz all the brownie ingredients in a food processor until fine and clumping together. Empty into a bowl, cover and chill for at least 1hr.
Step 2
To melt the coconut oil, half fill a large heatproof bowl with boiling water. Set a smaller heatproof bowl inside it and put in the coconut oil. When the oil is melted, remove the smaller bowl from the water and sift in the cocoa powder. Add maple syrup and stir to combine. Line a large baking sheet with baking parchment.
Step 3
Shape the brownie mixture into round, grape-size balls. Working a few at a time, drop balls into the chocolate coating and lift out using a teaspoon. Arrange on the prepared sheet to firm up (as the brownie mix is chilled, this will happen quickly). If you like, give the balls a second coat (if the chocolate coating gets too thick, rewarm it in the bowl of hot water). Chill.
Step 4
Serve the balls straight from the fridge or allow to soften at room temperature for 15min first.
