Healthy afternoon treat

Ever since watching The sugar film on the way to Rarotonga for our honeymoon,  I've been trying to cut out the amount of refined sugar in my diet. When i found a recipe for Healthy Date Truffles I was intrigued.

The recipe calls for 2 cups of chopped mixed fruit, 1/4 cup boiling water 1/2 cup of coconut an 1/2 cup of milk powder ( which I swapped for protein powder)
All you need to do is let the fruit sit in the water for 10 minutes or until the liquid is soaked into the fruit. Mix in the coconut and milk powder and stir. Roll into balls and roll though additional coconut. Pop them in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up.

No added sugar but still tastie,  serve with a mug of tea and enjoy.

Let me know what you think
