Crazy Date and Cranberry Truffles

by Chrissie Walker

 

These are sweet bites with a pleasing hit of sour from the cranberries. They are simple to make, and there’s no need for cooking so the kids can get involved too.

Ingredients

100g Crazy Jack Soft Dates
40g cocoa powder (NOT drinking chocolate)
40g smooth peanut butter
30g Crazy Jack Desiccated Coconut, plus more for coating
20 – 30g Crazy Jack dried cranberries
20g Crazy Jack Ground Almonds
50 – 100ml water
Dry or fresh cranberries for garnish

 

Method

Put the peanut butter, dates and 50ml of water (or enough to create a thick paste) in a processor and pulse till smooth.

Add the remaining ingredients and pulse again till well combined, adding more water if necessary.

Remove from the processor and form into small balls.

Roll the truffles in desiccated coconut and garnish with cranberries.

Chill before serving.
