Pistachio Chocolates
Yield
12 Pistachio chocolates
Ingredients
⅓ cup blanched pistachios, chopped
10 dried plums, pitted
10 pitted dates
1 tablespoon pure cocoa dessert powder
1 pinch of salt
¼ cup pistachios, crushed to powder
Instructions
With an electric mixer mix pistachios, dried plums, dates, cocoa and salt. Mix for two minutes until a sticky dough forms. If there is not enough to form small balls, add a couple more dates. With the help of a spoon, make balls, smaller than the size of a walnut.
Press the dough into a flattened circle. Arrange the chocolates on a tray covered with parchment paper. Let cool. Once the balls are cool, roll them in the pistachio powder and serve. Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container.
