Ingredients
- 3 medjool dates (soaked in little warm water to soften)
- 100g mixed fruit e.g. sultanas, raisins, cranberries
- 100g mixed nuts
- 1 tsp orange extract
- 2 tbsp cocoa
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp ground nutmeg
- ½ tsp ginger
- 50g white chocolate (you can substitute melted coconut manna/butter)
- Sprinkles of choice or crumbled, freeze dried raspberries or dried fruit
Topping (Optional)
Method
- Place the nuts in a blender and blitz into a flour, set aside.
- Place the dates, dried fruit, orange extract, cocoa, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger in the blender and blitz into a paste.
- Place the fruit and nut in a large mixing bowl and stir to combine (or use a food processor).
- Place a sheet of greaseproof paper on a plate, take handfuls of the mixture and shape into balls, either 16 small balls or 8 large (golf ball size) balls. If the mixture is too dry add a little water, if it’s too sticky, blend some nuts and add a little more (or add some ground almonds).
- Place in the fridge to set.
- For the topping melt the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water or in the microwave and carefully spoon over the top of each bite.
- Add your sprinkle of choice and enjoy.
