Cooking method

• Grind all dried fruits with nuts in a blender (you can skip through a meat grinder). Add liqueur, stir and roll into balls of the desired size with your hands. Then roll the sweets in different sprinkles, I have coconut flakes, chopped chocolate muesli and a multi-colored pastry shop. Tasty and healthy! On special occasions, I use such sweets as a semi-finished product for a chocolate fountain.
  

The dish is designed for

30-40 pcs.

Time for preparing:

30 minutes

And if you make it without liquor? For children?

And if you add some more cocoa?

delicious food!

Do not believe it - already done!
No liquor. From the sprinkles of the house there was only powdered sugar.

Children cannot be forced to eat dates, figs, dried apricots (they eat nuts).
And here they ate with pleasure, especially since the word "candy" has a magical effect on them

[Larochka]

Larochka, class !!! I'm such a candy from young nails I have been sculpting since school years, deliciousahh !!! I still add lemon to the candy mass, for sourness ... There are lots of candy variations !!! For which I actually love them ... I'll try to take your proportions, well, in the sense of proportions from the recipe given by you, thank you, honey !!!

Oh, thank you, I was even surprised by such a reaction - it seemed to me that such things are often done and, just in case, before placing them as a separate recipe, I searched the site with a search. It even seemed to me that I myself had already placed them somewhere, only on sticks and in chocolate. And I don't remember where.

Oh, you have to try to make it, it should be tasty. And you can probably roll it in crushed cookies and waffles or in nut crumbs ...

That's so beautiful! Also bookmarked

beautiful, tasty and not only is it cool! it is also very healthy!

In recent months, we have been eating from sweets only (except in exceptional cases) such healthy homemade sweets. I worked out an approximate composition: dried apricots, dates, prunes, boneless raisins, nuts (almonds or walnuts, etc.), dark chocolate (I take 85%), sometimes some figs. I pass everything through a meat grinder. Add a couple of spoonfuls of one of Madre Labs' mixes:

Sometimes, for the experiment, I add instant oatmeal (which does not require cooking) or buy oatmeal cookies and use a mortar (the main thing is that both cannot be put into a meat grinder). I use sesame as a sprinkling. Ready-made sweets on a wooden cutting board "reach" in the refrigerator.

[Chef]

Chef, dopleta, gorgeous candies!
We haven't done this for a long time, it's time to improve! Thank you for reminding me! And the composition with oatmeal should be tried. Although we hardly eat sweets, we often abuse others (baked goods, etc.).
ChefAnd what kind of mixtures, I do not know from which site to order?

[Chef]

What kind of mixtures

I suspect with iHerb ...

Chef, and what is the composition of the mixtures?

[Chef]

Thanks for the tip about the mixes, Chef, great idea! We often make these sweets, and we do not strictly adhere to this recipe, the composition varies from the presence of components, and instead of liqueur for children I add honey and lemon juice. And on holidays, we turn on the chocolate fountain, put the balls on sticks - and the kids (and adults as well) have fun.

Has anyone already tried chopping dried fruits for such candies in a chopper? And is it good? And then I don't have a meat grinder, but I read the recipe and thought, it will be an ideal delicacy for the New Year: both low-fat and healthy, and sweet and tasty. The very thing!

What kind of mixtures

and what is the composition of the mixtures

Here there is a description. I think the most suitable and no contraindications is the first mixture on the link

Has anyone already tried chopping dried fruits for such candies in a chopper?

If only very carefully.The load is large, the shredder may overheat.

And the composition with oatmeal should be tried.

And also lightly fry it (rolled oats) in a pan, it will be tastier.
I'm taking it to bookmarks. I will stock up on food - I will definitely cook it. I constantly eat dried fruits, but I didn’t think to do it like that.

If only very carefully. The load is large, the shredder may overheat.

Thank you. Apparently, I will have to risk my chopper, I really want to make such sweets.

[Taichka]

And also lightly fry it (rolled oats) in a frying pan

And I do this procedure in the oven, I immediately bring the entire package (450 grams) to a nutty flavor ... and it takes a penny ...

I constantly eat dried fruits, but I didn’t think to do this

Taichka, just don't say that you and of this have not tried ...

Chef, ...

Taichka, just don’t tell me that you haven’t tried this either ...

No, I haven't tried it.

I am interested in the recipe, I am using it, it is tasty and healthy, thanks to Larissa for such a useful recipe !!!

Thanks to Larisa for the recipe. Indeed, very tasty.
And what puzzled me - I love ready-made candies with such a filling. And mine are tastier and are completely adjusted in composition to my taste, and I saw that I put the purity and quality of the products. Ready sweets were rolled in fine chocolate shavings. Well, it turned out very cool, very happy.

Has anyone already tried chopping dried fruits for such candies in a chopper? And is it good?

I chopped it in a grinder, it turned out well, the technique is intact. Only I grinded in parts, not all at once.

[Taia]

I am very happy, Taia! Thank you for writing about your impressions!

Larisa,: do you need to process dried fruits with boiling water? : secret: I feel like a "stupid American" who cannot live without instructions

Well, here's your instruction, Natasha. There are dried fruits in the package, already washed and ready to eat. They are usually soft, clean and on the packaging it is written that it is ready for use. And if the fruits are old, loose, dry, then, of course, they need to be processed. Rinse well, scald and freshen up by adding a little water and placing in the microwave for a minute. That is, to act as we always do with dried fruits!

Thank you, thank you for the instructions. And then we have a tutucha, all Toko dried fruits in grimy bags are sold. I have never seen them remarkably clean. So I got hung up

[Natalia]

We also sell loose bags from bags, you need to wash them. But I would dry thoroughly after washing.
Ready-made dried fruits in bags are much more expensive, 3 times or more.
Nataliaespecially since your local dried fruits are recommended as the best.

I was worried that if I began to wash them, then the candies would not work for me. Well, suddenly ... this is the very "secret" of the deliciousness of sweets. Before that, I was "hanging out" with Admin in sun-dried lemons and it is soooooo recommended to rinse the lemons well. So I got stuck

Yes, yes, after "refreshing" in the microscope I also "blot" with a paper towel, sorry, I forgot to write.

Thank you Now I have introduced what dried fruit should be. I even started to work. I hope soooooo that I won't be blunt anymore

But I would dry thoroughly after washing.

I also blot with a paper towel

I do not dry it at all, except that water flows down in a colander. Madre Labs nuts, oatmeal and blends are excellent at condensing the moisture of dried fruit to create an acceptable thickness and viscosity.

After scalding, let the water drain in a colander. Then I mixed it with dates (they were in a package, but rather dry) and into a micra. It turned out as fresh. There was no water in the bowl, and a special thanks to the Chief. Now I will definitely not worry about excess moisture.

[dopleta]

dopleta, Larissa, thanks for the magic recipe! I really feel like a super mom :-). I feed the family with healthy sweets (it's not even familiar to me)!

I am very, very happy, Natasha! Super mom - bravo!

And thanks from me for the recipe. I recently made similar sweets. I took a bag of dried apricots (150 g), two bags of 150 g of raisins (light and dark), cleaned 10 pieces of dates, a bag of a mixture of nuts (100 g), 1 lemon with a peel (freed from seeds in advance), 1 tbsp. l. honey, a small piece (about 50 g) of ginger. Ready sweets rolled in coconut and sesame. That's what I did:


Loved the cereal idea. I will definitely try.

Sometimes for the experiment I add instant oatmeal.

Now, instead, I add dry bran or fiber crushed in a mortar.

Now, instead, I add dry bran or fiber crushed in a mortar.

Now I have canceled the fiber, cereal, chocolate and concoctions I talked about earlier. Add only raw (not semi-finished or cooked) foods

good candy

Now I have canceled the fiber, cereal, chocolate and concoctions I talked about earlier.

Why?

good candy

Thank you !

[dopleta]

dopleta, Larissais this a new batch? Pretty women! I also wanted
Are prunes without shine sold in your area? We are all glistening, obviously coated with something

We sell everyone, Lena.

[Larissa]

Larissa, thanks for the recipe, I also want to try. And dried a lot of prunes! I just eat ~ instead of sweets ChiChour ~ three of us can't hold it!
Raisins and apples, too, from the dryer ~ DarAgai's mom! If I make these candies! What is this buiit!
We must urgently try. The only sprinkling in the house is coconut. There is more cocoa ...

[mamusi]

mamusi, Rita, with your delicious food, you don't need a sprinkling!

Why?

To more reliably control the naturalness of the composition.
They also suggest that in order to improve the taste and color of sweets, you need to add a banana chopped in lemon juice. Lemon juice - to prevent the banana from oxidizing. Need to try.

So I was honored.
The most interesting. I have made such a mixture of dried fruits and nuts many times - healthy, tasty. The granddaughter did not want to use it in any way - not a spoonful. And now he says: "Granny, what delicious sweets you made!"
Lorik, thanks!

Therefore, Marusa received a natural hello from me!

The extra weight forced me to make sweets ... I love the little ones and without them, in the morning, it's sad)))
Dried apricots, raisins, prunes, dates, walnuts - only 150 g each.
I am very pleased with this delicacy.

Ah, beauty👍! And sprinkled with what, Natasha, coconut?

Ah, beauty👍! And sprinkled with what, Natasha, coconut?

Yeah, Laris, coconut. I did it on the basis of another source, yesterday. And today I decided to look at our HP and see what there is about this delicacy. Slu-o-go ..., I am delighted with the design of your sweets. It would not have occurred to me to decorate like this ... Thank you, very much.
I read the whole topic, learned a lot of nuances for myself.
Thanks again!!!

To your health!
