Instructions
Mix the Ingredients
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground dates, coconut milk, almond flour, desiccated coconut, tahini, and orange zest.
-
Mix until a sticky dough forms and all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
Shape the Truffles
-
Roll the mixture into balls, creating two sizes for each snowman: one smaller (for the head) and one larger (for the body).
-
Stack one small ball on top of a larger ball, pressing them together gently to adhere. Insert a stick or wooden skewer through the center to secure them together.
Coat the Snowmen
-
Lightly brush the assembled snowmen with melted coconut oil and roll them in desiccated coconut for a snowy finish.
-
Alternatively, dip the "bodies" in melted dark chocolate for a fun variation, leaving the "heads" snowy white.
Decorate (Optional)
-
Use melted dark chocolate to add small dots for the eyes and buttons, and a dash of orange zest for a "scarf."
