Recipe: Rudolph Bites
Serves: 12
Prep Time: 20 minutes | Chill Time: 1 hour
Ingredients:
8 medjool dates, pitted
60ml hot water
20g Nesquik Chocolate Milkshake Powder
2 tbsp milled flax seed
40g rolled oats
2 tsp chia seeds
1 tbsp desiccated coconut
To decorate:
2 tbsp puffed rice
2 tbsp pomegranate seed
6 plain pretzels, broken in half
Method:
1. Add the medjool dates and hot water to a bowl and set aside to soften.
2. Pulse the oats in a food processor until they have broken up but still have a chunky texture. Add all the remaining dry ingredients and pulse again until everything is mixed.
3. Add the softened dates and water and continue to pulse until until you have a dough like consistency. You may have to add a spoon extra of hot water if your mixture is too thick.
4. Decant the mix into a bowl and roll into 10 balls and place on a large plate or lined baking tray.
5. Press two pieces of puffed rice and a pomegranate seed into the ball for eyes and nose and two pieces of pretzels in to the top for antlers.
6. Pop into the fridge for an hour or until set.
