Date Truffles Madgooga Recipes

DATE TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Cook dates, butter, egg and sugar in a pot over low heat. Stir until it boils; cook for 5 minutes; then as heat reduces, add ginger and lemon juice. Cool thoroughly and add rice bubbles. Mix well. Form into small balls the size of a walnut. Roll in coconut or sesame seeds.

DATE TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Combine almond flour, powdered milk, and spices in a small skillet and place over low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is fragrant and light brown in color, about 2 minutes.
• Add butter and stir until the butter is melted and mixture is well combined. Transfer to the bowl of an electric mixer and let cool, at least 5 minutes.
• Add date paste, cocoa, and salt to bowl and beat until well combined using the paddle attachment. Scoop balls using a tablespoon or a small ice-cream scoop and drop onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roll between damp hands to smooth. Refrigerate truffles at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
• Melt chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, stirring until smooth; stir in coconut oil. Dip truffles into chocolate, scraping along the edge of the bowl to remove any excess chocolate.
• Roll to coat in pistachios, coconut, or sesame seeds, or a mixture of sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/2 cup cocoa powder.

DATE TRUFFLES (MADGOOGA)

Steps:

• Put all ingredients in a bowl.
• Grind the mixture with meat grinder finely.
• Shape the dates into small balls 2 cm in diameter with slightly oiled hand with vegetable oil (I like to shape them roughly so they are not so perfect balls).
• Roll the truffles in your selected coating and place on parchment paper or tray.
• Put the truffles in small decorative paper cups and arrange them in the serving plate.
• If you bought dates that are already ground and pitted, you don't need to grind them in the meat grinder, simply knead ingredients together by hand or you can grind it again by the meat grinder.
