Servings: 10

Preparation duration: 25 minutes

 

Ingredients:

2 T almond milk

2 cups chocolate chips

2-3 T maple syrup

1 1/2 cups raw cashews (soaked overnight)

2 tsp ground vanilla beans

Equipment:

food processor

baking sheet

double boiler

Cooking instruction summary:

Drain the cashews and rinse. Add them to a food processor with the rest of the filling ingredients and blend until smooth. If the mixture looks a little too soft to form into cookies, place it in the fridge for 5 minutes to firm up. Use a cookie scoop to drop onto a lined baking sheet. Place in the freezer while you make the chocolate. Use a double boiler method to gently melt the chocolate and the milk. Once the chocolate mixture is smooth, use two forks to roll each ball into the chocolate and then place back on the lined baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for the chocolate to set. Once the chocolate has set, you can move the truffles back to the fridge. They should last a few weeks in the fridge if you can make it that long! :)

Food Trivia

People were using garlic to repel long before Bram Stoker's was published. Folklorists suggest it is because vampires have a heightened sense of smell and the garlic's strong smell was overpowering. Garlic is proven to be effective against two other bloodsuckers: mosquitoes and ticks.

Food Joke

A young family moved into a house next door to a vacant lot. One day a construction crew turned up to start building a house on the empty lot. The young family's 6 year old daughter naturally took an interest in all the activity going on next door and started talking with the workers. She hung around and eventually the construction crew - gems in the rough, all of them - more or less adopted her as a kind of project mascot. They chatted with her, let her sit with them while they had coffee and lunch breaks,and gave her little jobs to do here and there to make her feel important. At the end of the first week they even presented her with a pay envelope containing a dollar. The little girl took this home to her mother who said all the appropriate words of admiration and suggested that they take the dollar pay she had received to the bank the next day to start a savings account. When they got to the bank the teller was equally impressed with the story and asked the little girl how she had come by her very own pay check at such a young age. The little girl proudly replied, "I've been working with a crew building a house all week". "My goodness gracious", said the teller, "and will you be working on the house again this week too"? "I will if those useless morons at the lumber yard ever bring us the f****** bricks", replied the little girl.
