Ingredients

  • 3/4 3/4 cup cashews or 3/4 cup peanuts
  • 1 1 cup raisins or 1 cup dried apricot
  • 1/4 cup carob powder
  • 1/2 vanilla beans or 1/2 few drops vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional)

Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients in a food processor and process until you get a smooth and somewhat sticky mixture.
  2. Check and see if it needs a spoonful of water to hold together, and if you don't think it's sweet enough, then add some of your favorite sweetener.
  3. Pour the mixture into a bowl and using your palms, roll into bite size balls, or press the balls flat into cookies, or use molds if you want them to be a certain shape.
  4. Decorate them with nuts or seeds or dried fruit. I placed a goji berry on top of each piece. Enjoy! : ).
