Think sesame seeds are only a savoury ingredient? think again! They work wonderfully in desserts. I was looking for a way to get lots of goodness into my newly vegan husband (yay!) and came up with these. They have a strong molasses flavour, hint of spice and are packed full of omega 3's and calcium (amongst other things). These sweet nut truffles are the perfect daily bite size treat. If you're not keen on molasses feel free to sub in another sweetener and up the quantities of carob & spices.
