This is one essential holiday treat in our household. The peanutty, coconutty chewiness is irresistible... even to many people who've never tried carob.

Steps:
- In a small saucepan, combine the peanut butter and sweetener. Stir over med-low heat until melty.
- Remove from heat.
- GRADUALLY add the carob powder and stir it in- ditto the sesame seeds.
- It's easier to roll into balls once the mixture has cooled a little, so if you can, let it sit 5-10 minutes or even refrigerate.
- Scoop up a chunk with a spoon and roll it into a walnut-sized ball (1 inch) in your fingers. Put it in a small bowl with the coconut and shake the bowl around till the carob ball is coated.
- Store the balls in the fridge. They freeze great, but you'll have to let them thaw or they'll break your teeth!

Tips:
- Use a food processor: A food processor will make quick work of chopping the dates and nuts. If you don't have a food processor, you can chop them by hand, but it will take a little longer.
- Be sure to soak the dates: Soaking the dates in hot water for 10 minutes will soften them and make them easier to blend. If you don't soak them, they may be too hard to blend smoothly.
- Don't over-process the mixture: You want the mixture to be slightly chunky, not completely smooth. If you over-process it, the balls will be too soft and sticky.
- Use your hands to shape the balls: The easiest way to shape the balls is to use your hands. Just roll the mixture into 1-inch balls.
- Coat the balls in carob powder: Coating the balls in carob powder will give them a rich, chocolatey flavor. You can also use cocoa powder or powdered sugar, if you prefer.
- Chill the balls before serving: Chilling the balls for at least 30 minutes will help them firm up and set.
Conclusion:
Carob balls are a delicious and healthy snack that are perfect for any occasion. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you prefer them plain, with nuts, or with dried fruit, you're sure to enjoy these tasty treats. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying snack, give carob balls a try. You won't be disappointed!
