Servings: 12 truffles
Ingredients
- ½ cup raw almonds
- 1 cup(lightly packed) majdool dates
- ¾ cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Place the unsalted almonds in a food processor or blender. Pulse the almonds until they break down into coarse crumbs. Avoid over-blending; the goal is to achieve a textured, coarse consistency, not a fine powder.
- Add the pitted dates and pulse or blend until they form a sticky, uniform mixture.
- Scoop out small portions of the blended mixture and roll them between your palms to form small balls
- Place dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in short intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
- Take each formed date truffle and dip it into the melted dark chocolate, ensuring it's evenly coated. You can use a fork or a dipping tool to help coat the truffle completely.
- As each truffle is coated, place it on a parchment-lined tray or plate to prevent sticking.
- If desired, drizzle extra melted chocolate over the dipped truffles or sprinkle chopped almonds.
- Place the tray of chocolate-coated truffles in the refrigerator for the chocolate to set completely.
