Yield 26 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 orange, juice and zest
4 ounces dates
1/3 cup dried cranberries
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
2 tablespoons honey
1 pinch salt
3/4 cup walnuts
1 cup sweetened coconut

These truffles were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them with dark chocolate next time.
