This is an easy and tasty recipe. The truffles are delicious, and I can't wait to let my family try them. I used what I had at home, so there were a lot of substitutions. I used 1/2 cup dates, 1/4 cup raisins and toasted sunflower seed nut butter rather than peanut butter. I used agave nectar rather than maple syrup. I only needed about 1 or 2 ounces of the coconut. I think this recipe can be adapted with almost any dried fruit that is very moist and other nut butters, especially almond.

Cooking should be easy and fun, in my opinion! And it's not only what you eat, but how you eat it . . . a peaceful meal eaten with a sense of gratitude will do wonders for the digestion. I cook for my family and we enjoy mainly organic, vegetarian dishes.
