Slowly pulse in the dates, pumpkin puree, and spice, making sure to give your processor some breaks in between pulses.
Remove the blade from the food processor and work the nibs into the dough with your hands.
Place the dough in the fridge for 10 minutes to chill.
With your hands, roll the dough into bite-sized balls, about the size of 1 Tbs.
Coat half of the balls in the finely ground coffee, and dunk the other half in the melted chocolate.
Refrigerate the balls until served, and freeze the chocolate-covered ones for 5 min. Eat and feel GOOD!
