Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup dried apricots
  • 1 cup macadamia nuts
  • ½ cup water
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 7 ounces dark chocolate

Instructions
 

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
  • Combine dried apricots, macadamia nuts, water, and granulated sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil and remove from heat.
  • Pour the apricot mix into a food processor and blend until smooth.
  • Use a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop the apricot puree into balls on the baking sheet lined with parchment paper. You may need to use your hands to roll the mixture into balls. The size should be about 1-inch balls.
  • Freeze the apricot truffle balls in a single layer on the baking tray in the freezer for 10-15 minutes.
  • In a double boiler or microwave, melt the dark chocolate.
  • Remove the truffles from the fridge and use a fork to dip each one into the melted chocolate.
  • Place each chocolate truffle back on the parchment-lined baking sheet and drizzle with any extra melted chocolate.

Notes

Store the apricot truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days. To freeze, wrap in plastic wrap and a freezer-safe ziplock bag and freeze for up to three months.
