2 cups pitted dates
2 cups desiccated coconut

needed to recombine.

How to package them for gifts​

If you'd like to make your truffles look as good as they taste, then here are a few tips to help you out:

• For a professional touch, try coating your truffles and balls in melted chocolate.
• To make a number of different looking truffles and balls, try rolling the finished sweets in crushed nuts, toasted and untoasted coconut, chocolate sprinkles, crushed chocolate bars or even jelly crystals.
• Line a shallow box with small paper confectionary cases and place a sweet inside each paper case.
• Package your sweets up in cellophane bags and tie them with a ribbon for an impressive gift that only takes moments to put together.

Enjoy
