On the weekend Michael too I helped a friend deed house. She's an almost-neighbour that nosotros swap cat-sitting favours too proceed spare keys with; we're lamentable that she's moving farther away from us but rattling happy that she's constitute a gorgeous identify too terrific gardening infinite to telephone telephone her ain out inward the country. Not everything went to excogitation but nosotros got the labor done too the picnic luncheon I prepared the nighttime earlier became a celebratory dinner, eaten on the flooring inward Jos' grand novel living expanse too washed downward amongst champagne. We started amongst silverbeet calzone too thence moved on to cheese, fruit too these espresso too oat truffles.
The truffle recipe is from Green Kitchen Stories too seems to survive inspired past times a Danish Christmas sweetness that I'm unfamiliar with. I'm only bully for novel no-bake treats that brand role of the ingredients that are typically inward my pantry. (And I've only decided, whilst perusing other such recipes inward our archives, that they deserve their ain label.) These ones instruct their mass from oats too coconut, sweetness from dates too a shine truffle texture from kokosnoot oil. Everything gets blended upwardly inward the nutrient processor too thence rolled into balls - it couldn't survive simpler. I constitute the mixture also sloppy ane time processed thence I added a lilliputian extra kokosnoot too oats to the master copy quantity too gave it a lilliputian fourth dimension inward the refrigerator to permit the kokosnoot fossil oil to trouble solid up.
I would convey preferred these to survive a lilliputian sweeter but Michael loved them only equally they are. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 calendar week afterward we're both thoroughly enjoying a 2nd batch that substitutes rice bubbles for the oats, has a smidge of agave nectar for sweetness, too is much stronger on the java aroma. They're definitely a worthy add-on to the no-bake treat rotation - elementary to prepare, using mutual pantry ingredients too amenable to substitutions for gustatory modality too convenience.
Espresso & oat truffles
(based on a recipe at Green Kitchen Stories)
fifteen fresh dates (or soak dried dates inward H2O for one-half an hr too drain)
v tablespoons rolled oats
three tablespoons dessicated coconut
ii tablespoons kokosnoot oil
ii tablespoons cocoa
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon cardamom
1 shot espresso, cooled
extra dessicated kokosnoot and/or rolled oats for rolling
Use a nutrient processor to mix together the outset viii ingredients. Taste the mixture too conform the season to your liking.
If the mixture is also mushy to survive rolled, refrigerate it for 15-30 minutes thence that the kokosnoot fossil oil solidifies. When the mixture is ready, curl it into balls too coat them inward kokosnoot or oats. Refrigerate the balls farther earlier eating.
