Process the nuts in a food processor first to help break them up. Add the dates, cranberries, vanilla, lemon juice, salt and cinnamon if using. Process until a sticky paste like dough forms.( Add chocolate here if using, only pulse once or twice to incorporate.) You may have to stop and scrape down the side once or twice. Use a 1 tbs. scoop to form little balls. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to a week or freeze for up to 3 months.
