Ingredients

(Servings: 10)

  • For the balls
  • 10 10 g dates
  • 6 6 g almond butter
  • 1.5 1.5 g cacao powder
  • 0.1 0.1 tsp ginger powder
  • 0.1 0.1 tsp juice of grated ginger

Method

  1. Mix together all the ingredients for the balls in a large pan on low heat until the mixture becomes one thick consistency, careful not to overheat.
  2. Once cooled down slightly, roll into balls and leave in the fridge for 10 minutes if still too hot.
  3. Now melt the Ombar raw chocolate by placing in a small bowl and immersing this bowl in a pan of boiling hot water. I usually leave this to boil and melt on low heat. The balls should be more firm by now.
  4. Roll them in the chocolate and then in some raw cacao powder to give them that extra dusting and finishing.
