What you need:
- 1 cup cashews
- 1 cup walnuts
- 1/2 cup raw cacao powder (or cocoa powder)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup medjool dates (pitted)
- 1/4 cup goji berries
- 1/4 pumpkin seeds
- 1/4 tsp of pink himalayan sea salt
- Agave syrup (optional – depending on the level of sweetness desired)
- 1 tsp cinnamon, 1 tbsp sesame seeds, dash of cayenne pepper
Directions:
- Combine cashews, walnuts, cacao powder, vanilla, salt, goji berries, pumpkin seeds in a food processor
- Blend until it looks and feels paste like (you may add agave to add sweetness or extra stickiness if needed)
- Remove from the food processor
- Grab small tsp size piece of the “dough” and roll into a ball
- In a separate bowl add the cinnamon, sesame seeds, cayenne (if you want a bit of heat) and roll the balls to dust them (If you enjoy shredded coconut it would be lovely to roll the truffles in coconut and extra cacao powder)
- Place them on a tray and in the freezer for a few hours
- Transfer to a tightly sealed container after initially frozen
From Ruth: I haven’t ever had these, but the recipe looks interesting. My only question is why do all these have to look sooooo… well brown. You know what I am talking about.
