Ingredients
- 2 cups unsalted cashews
- 1/2 cup Steel cut oat blend
- 16 Soft Tunisian dates
- 3 tbsp Dutch Dark Cocoa
- 4 tbsp Sweet Shiraz (Red wine)
Instructions
- Drop the cashews and oats in a food processor.
- Plonk the dates through the shoot, one by one, and continue blending.
- As you blend, add the cacao powder.
- As I found the mixture a bit on the dry side, I decided to be different (as I usually do with any recipe I test) and added the sweet shiraz, 1 tbsp at a time, as it was sitting on the tabletop next to the blender.
- It just gave me that little extra bit of moisture and it’s perfect.
- Take the mixture out of the blender, and should you end up with some ingredients, not properly incorporated, just kneed it with your fingers, and voila, you have a nice sticky mixture coming together in one big lump.
- I used a 12.5ml measuring spoon (slightly heaped) to scoop up the mixture and then rolled it in the palm of my hands and formed the balls.
- Place the balls on a baking tray, and then pop them in the fridge until the balls are set and hardened.
- You will get approximately 27 Homemade Cashew Date and Wine Balls of ± 12.5ml size ready to munch on.
- Without a doubt, I had to test one, but must admit, I ended up testing more than just one. I will not say how many ….
