Dried Fruit and Nut Bites

This is a guilt free dessert that is delicious and perfect for tubishevat or passover or any other time. 
I pulsed 1 cup of mixed nuts with 1 tsp of cinnamon. Once the nuts were crushed, I put them in a big bowl. 
Next, I processed 4 medjool dates, 1/2 cup each of prunes, apricots and craisins until it forms a paste. 
Put on disposable gloves and mix the dried fruit and nuts. Roll into balls and then in shredded coconut. Allow to set for an hour or so in the fridge.
