No flour, sugar, or oven: homemade candies that can even be enjoyed on a diet 0 19

Ingredients list:

• dates — 300 grams;

• nuts — 100 grams;

• cocoa — one tablespoon.

• coconut flakes.

Preparation:

• The base uses dates, which are prepared in advance: they are cut, pitted, and soaked in boiling water. If desired, the skin can be removed, but this is not necessary, and if the fruits are a bit dry, they should be left in the water for 10–15 minutes.

• Next, the dates are combined with nuts and cocoa, and then blended into a uniform paste-like mass. The mixture should be soft and pliable.

• From the prepared mass, candies are formed by hand, slightly moistened with water. They are then rolled in coconut flakes and served.
