Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Date-Nut Energy Balls.
Step 1
To start your delicious date-nut balls, grab a medium saucepan and melt some butter over medium heat.
Step 2
Once the butter is bubbling and fragrant, toss in the chopped dates and white sugar.
Step 3
Stir continuously as the mixture thickens and transforms into a beautiful golden brown, which should take about 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 4
When it reaches that perfect consistency, carefully remove the saucepan from the heat.
Step 5
Now, it’s time to add in the crispy rice cereal and chopped pecans.
Step 6
Mix everything together until it’s well combined, and then let the mixture cool for about 5 to 10 minutes, or until it’s comfortable enough to handle.
Step 7
Once it’s cooled, roll the mixture into small, delightful balls using your hands.
Step 8
For the finishing touch, pour some confectioners' sugar into a resealable plastic bag.
Step 9
Add your freshly made date-nut balls, seal the bag tightly, and give it a gentle shake until each ball is beautifully coated in sweetness.
Step 10
Enjoy your tasty treats!.
