Two posts in one day? I must be crazy! Well, sometimes I can be, but today I came across a little giveaway at Chocolate Covered Katie. She’s giving away a Vita-Mix and how I would love to have one of those! My food processor broke, so I’m down to my Magic Bullet.

To earn some extra entries I wanted to make one of her recipes and decided on the Chocolate Fudge Babies. I already had the ingredients and thought it would be fun to try them. Since I knew I would be the only person in the house to eat them I decided to divide the measurements by three so I had fewer servings.

All I had to do was get some walnuts, dates (I used Medjool), vanilla extract, and dark cocoa powder. Can’t get much simplier than that! First, I pitted the dates, chopped them up and then measured everything.

Then I put all the ingredients into the Magic Bullet for about 10-15 seconds.

Here’s what it looked like:

Then I rolled them into little balls and fancied them up by putting them in mini muffin cups.

The verdict? Yum! I love the chocolate, plus they are so easy to make and perfect for a little treat. Thanks for the great recipe Katie!
