Almond Carob Truffles

1 cup almonds
1 cup dates
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
3 Tbsp. carob powder
3 Tbsp. water, warm
1 tsp. vanilla


Place almonds and dates in food processor and mix until ground.  Add cinnamon, carob powder, water, and vanilla.  Mix until well blended.


Fill mini-muffin tin with papers.  Using a small cookie scoop, measure out scoops of mixture.  With hands, roll into uniform balls and place in muffin papers.


Refrigerate to chill and ready to eat.


Really yummy!


*You may use chocolate instead of carob if you prefer, but carob has a 'sweeter' taste and it delicious in this recipe.
