How to Make Dried Fruit Truffles

Combine 1 cup pitted prunes and 1/2 cup pitted dates in a food processor.
Process until a sticky paste forms, scraping down the sides as needed. This may take 2-3 minutes.
Add 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder (optional, for extra richness) and 1 tablespoon of almond extract (optional, for enhanced flavor). Pulse a few times to combine.
Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls.
Prepare three separate bowls: one with unsweetened cocoa powder, one with crushed graham crackers or other cookies, and one with chopped almonds.
Roll each truffle in your chosen coating.
Place the truffles on wax paper-lined baking sheet.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
