At long last, the recipe!
Cashew Cookie Babies
Stolen from Chocolate Covered Katie
- 30 grams unsalted cashews
- 80 grams dates
- a drop or two of good-quality vanilla extract
- a tiny sprinkle of salt
Toss it all in the food processor and grind away. After it is thoroughly mixed you can shape them into little balls.
Sooo, after making a few batches I got a little lazy. I ended up tossing in an entire bag of Sunsweet pitted dates and about a 1/2 pound of cashews. Add the cashews a handful at a time to you can gauge the desired stickiness.
Remember, THIS IS CANDY! Loads of fat and natural sugar from the dates. Just because it is paleo doesn't mean you should "crack out" on it.
