- 12 Medjool dates, seed removed
- 1½ teaspoons mixed spice (use 2 teaspoons if not using extra cinnamon and cloves below)
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon - optional

- 2 tablespoons of either mixed peel or orange zest or 1 teaspoon orange extract
- 1 tablespoon almond spread, orange juice or
coconut oil (only use if mixture does not bind)
Crosses:
- ½ cup almond meal
- Water
- ½ teaspoon orange extract
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
- Place all the ingredients for the balls except the almond spread in a food processor and process until a smooth sticky dough consistency is achieved. Add the almond spread if the mixture is not combining and needs a bit more moisture to do so.
- Roll the mixture into small balls using your hands and place in the fridge until they become firm.
To make the paste for the crosses:
- Blend all the ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Alternatively, you can mix by hand in a bowl.
- Pipe or drizzle the paste over the bliss balls to form a cross on each one.
Refrigerate or freeze balls in an air-tight container.
