In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour and cocoa powder. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.
Add the unsweetened shredded coconut to the bowl and mix until evenly distributed with the dry ingredients.
In a small saucepan, gently heat the coconut oil and peanut butter over low heat until melted and well-blended. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the sugar-free sweetener, vanilla extract, and salt until fully blended.
Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until everything is well combined.
If using, fold in the chopped walnuts to add a bit of crunch to the chocolate balls.
Using clean hands or a small ice-cream scoop, form the mixture into small balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter.
Place the chocolate balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Transfer to the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes, or until firm.
Once set, serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
