Ingredients
170 grDried figs
40 grHazelnuts
One tablespoon Unsweetened cocoa powder
100 grDark chocolate
Instructions
If your figs are too dry, let them soak in warm water for approximately 10 minutes.
In a food processor, combine figs, hazelnuts and cocoa. Blend until you get a thick and firm ball of "dough". It should be sticky.If it's too thick, add some hot water. If too sticky, add some cocoa powder.
Let the mixture chill in the fridge.
In the meantime, melt your chocolate in the microwave or over a double boiler. Let it cool down a bit, into a bowl.
Take the mixture out of the fridge and form 10 truffles.
Coat the truffles:
Using a spoon, dip every truffle into the chocolate and make sure to coat them well. Don't skimp! Take them out of the chocolate using a fork, so you can remove excess chocolate.
Place them on a plate/tray lined with parchment paper.
Let them chill in the fridge or, if you're like me, eat them right away.
