35-40Ingredients
For the Fudge Layer:
- 2/5 cup of raw peanuts
- 2/5 cup of natural peanut butter
- 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon melted coconut butter
- Pinch of sea salt
For the Caramel Layer:
- 2/5 cup of juicy pitted dates
- 1 tablespoon warm water
- 2/5 cup of finely chopped raw peanuts
- Pinch of sea salt
For the ChocolateLayer
:
- 3 tablespoons raw cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 tablespoons cocoa butter
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
Preparation
- Blend peanuts in a food processor until they look like breadcrumbs. Add maple syrup, coconut butter, salt, and peanut butter. Keep blending until it forms a ball or stays together like a fudge.
- Press the mixture into the bottom of the silicon forms until each is about 1/2 full. This layer will be the top when you take them out of the forms.
- Make date caramel by blending dates until almost smooth. Add about 2 tablespoons warm water and keep blending. Add chopped peanuts and salt, stirring with a spoon until combined.
- Put the caramel and peanut layer on top of the fudge. Put in freezer for 30 minutes.
- Melt all the chocolate ingredients on a low heat until combined. If you want them to be raw, the temperature shouldn’t go over 113°F. Take the truffles out of the freezer and add chocolate layer.
- Freeze it at least 2 hours before removing from mold. Keep in an airtight container in fridge for up to a couple of weeks.
