Jersey, it's just something I kind of made up after looking at another recipe on a site
I didn't really measure anything, but you can really eyeball this.
I took about a cup or so of oats and whirred it very fine in my food processor. Then I added toasted almonds (or use whatever nut you want..last time I used some pecans) then whirred again. Then added a little vanilla extract and about 1/4 cup of cocoa powder and whirred again. Then added a bag of prunes and whirred again, then this time I added some caramel SF syrup. Last time I added some agave necter.
I whirred it till it has the consistancy of fudge or playdough...then rolled it into balls and store in the fridge.
A serving of prunes is 5 in a serving according to the info on the prune bag and has 12g of sugar. Each one of the balls maybe has 1/2 (or less) of a prune in it, so a couple of them would probably be a serving. They are so rich that one or 2 is all you need. It's kind of like a cross between stuffed dates and fudge. I think more than a couple and it would be overkill.
