Number Of Ingredients 11

1 orange, juice and zest
4 ounces dates

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger

I had trouble getting the truffles to set. I think I might have used too much cream.

These truffles are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.
