Comments
These are so delicious and were a huge hit with everyone who tried them! I substituted almonds for the sunflower seeds and used a concentrated peppermint oil in place of the peppermint essence. They had a great chocolately, minty flavour. Love the texture contrast of the soft centre and crunchy outside. They store well in the freezer and can be eaten directly from there as they do not freeze totally solid. I'll definitely be making these again!
