TURKISH DELIGHT INSPIRED TREATS
INGREDIENTS This is one of those recipes that’s hard to get wrong. This is a rough idea of quantities. Variations will still work so taste test and adjust to suit.
1 cup Almonds
350g Pitted dates
1/2 cup freeze dried raspberries (sold in decorating / baking section at Coles. I use 3 vials)
1x Tablespoon rose essence (optional)
1/2 cup Chopped pistachios
Dark chocolate
Process everything except choc and pistachios in high speed blender until mixed smoothly together. Depending on the juiciness of your dates your mix may be too sticky or too crumbly. If too sticky add more almonds or if too crumbly add more dates or a slurp of maple syrup and blend again.
Press into flat baking papered dish and put in fridge to set. Once set, chop into pieces. Coat in melted chocolate. Sprinkle pistachios on top before choc sets. If you love salt like me (hello pots) sprinkle some on top of the pistachios.
Note: your blender maybe hard to clean afterwards. To help this process add some cacao powder, protein powder and milk of your choice to make a smoothie before cleaning. I like doing this to avoid wasting those tricky to reach ingredients left in the jug.
