![]() Combining nuts and dried fruit with flavours into balls is something that raw foodies and wholefood lovers often do as a sweet treat. I find the rolling of balls rather labour intensive and prefer the putting in a tray and cutting into square option easier. I have experimented with various recipes and come up with a recipe with easy to remember quantities that is easy to adapt with different flavours. For the basic recipe
Ingredients: 100g raw almonds 100g raw cashews 100g raw cacao nibs 100g dessicated or shredded coconut 250g dried dates 100g coconut oil big pinch sea salt Method: Grind nibs on speed 9 for 30 secs and set aside Grind nuts on speed 7 for 8 seconds and set aside Grind dates and coconut on speed 8 for 30 seconds Add other ground ingredients, salt and oil and mix on speed 5 till well combined Place into a flat tray or dish and press down till flat and even Scores the fudge with a knife into bite size pieces Refrigerate till hard (of freeze to be quicker), then cut or break pieces along score marks to separate pieces. Keep refrigerated so the coconut oil stays hard. To add flavours:
Tips: With the dates, the drier dates work better than the softer medjool dates in this recipes. Be absolutely sure all the dates are in fact pitted, I always chop each one in half to make sure, as I had a chopped pip in my fudge once - not nice!
