How to Make Moroccan Charoset Balls

  1. Combine 1 cup pitted dates, 1/2 cup raisins, and 1/2 cup walnuts in a food processor. Process until finely chopped and the mixture begins to stick together.
  2. With the food processor running, gradually add 1/4 cup sweet wine (such as sherry or dessert wine) until the mixture becomes a sticky paste.
  3. Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of the charoset mixture onto the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Using slightly moistened hands, roll each mound into a hazelnut-sized ball.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the balls to firm up. Enjoy these delicious treats during your Seder or as a special Passover snack!
  6. Serve traditionally by scooping the charoset balls with romaine lettuce leaves.
