Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Hmmm. The chosen title for these is interesting because peppermint extract and cocoa powder are the smallest parts of the ingredients. The truffles do have a nice, mild peppermint flavor but the main ingredients are dates and almonds, so the chocolate takes a secondary role. I did use Hershey’s chocolate cocoa powder, not the dark cocoa powder recommended. But I’m not sure dark chocolate cocoa would have improved these. I also thought the truffles were really big and halved them. Finally, they are sticky. I washed my hands after eating one. My personal verdict: These are okay but not sure I’d repeat, even though they are a pretty healthy treat and were easy and fast to put together.
