Prep Time: 15M

Cooking Time: 5M

Serves: 12

There's more where this came from!

Ingredients

¾ cup ground almonds
1 cup peanut butter (or other nut butter)
2 tablespoon maple syrup or agave
12 pitted dates (this is based on deglet noor dates but if using larger medjool dates reduce to 7 dates)
¼ tsp salt
1/4 cup cocoa powder
Dark chocolate for coating

These pretty, very tasty truffles are made from surprisingly healthy ingredients!

Makes Approx. 12 Truffles.

Method

Soak the dates in boiling water for 5 mins and then drain. In a food processor, mix all the truffle ingredients together to form a thick paste, it should be sticky but not too sticky to handle.

Roll into walnut sized balls and chill until they are a little firmer.

Melt the chocolate and either dip the firm truffles into the chocolate to half coat them, or just drizzle the chocolate over the top of the truffles on a tray.

Best kept refrigerated. Eat within 1 week or freeze.
