@mindhunter's sweet tooth returns: COCONUT AND DATE FUDGE! Hell yeah!

in #food7 years ago

Coconuts seems to go well with dates for some strange reason - I discovered this on a recent trip to Israel. What better way to combine them than in a fudge! Yum yum! Makes 25 pieces.

INGREDIENTS:

250g of desiccated coconut / coconut flakes
8 large Medjool dates, pitted

@mindhunter METHOD:

  1. Blitz the coconut in a blender until it softens, then add the dates and blend again until fully combined.

  2. Spread onto a baking tray and slice it into 20 squares, then place in the fridge to set for 1-2 hours.

This fudge is surprsingly sweet, despite all the guilt-free ingredients. Coconut is full of fibre too.

I personally like to add some melted dark chocolate on top, as well as into the mixture at the first blend.

Enjoy your sweet fudge my fellow Steemians

Looks delicious! Also looks like 10 grams of this will make you gain a kilo in weight 8-).

Man! I can't leave this post now!!!

(how did we ever stray from path of fudge?!)

I hereby banish you to a diet of fried mushrooms only!!

... and maybe one beer per week ;)

Can I still have whisky?

1 Depth Charge ONLY! - A shot of whisky dropped into your ale!

Blasphemy!

A blended whisky depth charge NOT a single malt one you daftie!

Thank goodness. I was about to unfollow you (just kidding, of course).

I'm a Scotsman ... I'm good with whisky ... trust me ;)

This is your blended whisky for your depth charge - an excellent everyday supping whisky! Come join me?

You're rather far away for a toast, but maybe some day. Can I wear a kilt when in Scotland? I do have a Scottish ancestor somewhere down the line, a soldier named James Stuart.

You certainly can wear your kilt here no problem :) Some excellent genealogy skills going on there too.

Send some of this to my office now!

On it's way ....

My mouth watered scrolling down seeing this!

It's a very different kind of fudge too ... v.sweet :))

sounds yummy - not a big fudge fan , toffee now thats a different matter all together....Bonfire Night soon for you guys so toffee is a must!!
Enjoy :)

Can I have both?? HAPPY FIREWORKS NIGHT!!

certainly, can't see why not -:)

Just picked up loads of dead fireworks from my garden this morning ... a v.noisy night!

awww really missed BF night this year :(
sounds like a party with a 'bang'!

Wow, that's so easy and I happen to be addicted to medjool dates, so I always have some handy.

Be even better eating them alongside reading a new @cathi-xx poem ;) Get writing! Ha ha! (just been for wee sneakie at your timeline!)

I've entered all my new poems into competitions so I can't post them to Steemit yet. There was a funny roundel about how I toilet trained my dog to ring a bell and now he rings it when he wants "air conditioning" and one about a birthday cake that was covered in ants.
So it's either wait until spring or get on chat and I'll PM them to you.

Poetic surrealism eh. I can't wait to see one of them ;)
