I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
- Soak dates in juice - overnight best
- Zest rind and spices 10 sec / speed 10
- Add nuts, chop 10 sec / speed 9
- Add dates, oil, chop 15 sec / speed 8, repeat til desired consistency
- Using wet hands, roll into balls. Freeze on tray for 30min minimum
- Melt chocolate and oil - (2 last ingredients from list) I use microwave, 20 second bursts, stir and repeat til melted. Roll balls in melted chocolate. Return to freezer to set (they normally set as soon as you have rolled them in chocolate if balls are cold enough) store in air tight container in freezer or fridge until ready to serve.
Truffles
Tip
VEGAN - Use Organic chocolate found at Aldi or make your own.
ADULT ALTERNATIVE - Replace some of the orange juice with a nip of cointreu - I suggest 50g juice, 30g cointreu for a delicious kick at Christmas
One coating in chocolate is delicious but allows the inside to pop out (as pictured). Double coating in chocolate gives you a much neater finish. If they are gifts, I recommend 2 coats.

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
