Let’s Make It:
1. Start with the basics. Dice those dates, apricots, and almonds up.
2. Get out your trusty blender. Toss in the fruits and almonds, and don’t forget the raisins. Blend until you’ve got a mix that sticks together.
3. Now for the flavor: toss in the cocoa, honey, and vanilla. Blend it up until you’ve got a harmonious mix.
4. Time for some fun! Roll them into balls. Think bite-sized.
5. Pop them into the fridge for about 15 minutes. This helps them firm up and meld the flavors.
Some Tricks Up My Sleeve:
– A fine chop makes for smoother truffles.
– If you’re going vegan, swap out the honey for maple syrup. It’s just as tasty.
– Throw in some walnuts if you fancy more nutty goodness.
Enjoying Your Creation:
These truffles? Great on their own. But try them with a cup of tea or even a latte. Want to jazz them up? Roll them in some desiccated coconut or give them a dip in melted dark chocolate before chilling.
