Palline Snickers
Ingredienti
- 1 bicchiere Datteri Medjool - (note 1) about 12-14 pitted medjool dates
- ½ bicchiere fiocchi d'avena - (nota 2)
- ¼ bicchiere Burro di arachidi - (nota 3)
- ⅓ bicchiere Arachidi Salate Arrostite - (nota 4)
- 1 cucchiaino da tè Estratto di vaniglia
Chocolate Cover
- ¾ bicchiere Gocce Di Cioccolato Fondente
- 1 pizzico Sale
- 2 cucchiaini Olio d'oliva
Istruzioni
- Line a plate with lightly oiled parchment paper. Set aside.
- Place the Medjool dates in a bowl and cover them with boiled water. Set it aside for 5 minutes.
- Drain the pitted Medjool dates over a sieve. Press them gently in your hand to remove any water. Place them into the bowl of a food processor with the S-blade attachment.
- Add oats, peanut butter, vanilla, and salted roasted peanuts.
- Blend at high speed until it comes together into a sticky dough. I usually work in 3-4 times, blend 20 seconds, stop the food processor, scrape down sides with a rubber spatula, repeat, until it comes together into a sticky caramel-like batter.
- Oil your hands with olive oil to prevent the batter from sticking to your hands.
- Scoop out about 1 1/2 tablespoon of dough, and roll the dough in your hand to form a ball. Place on a plate covered with parchment paper.
- Roll into 10 balls. Refrigerate while melting the chocolate.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, add chocolate chips, olive oil, and microwave in 30-second bursts until fully melted.
- Use a fork to dip each ball into the melted chocolate and coat entirely. Wait a few seconds above the bowl to let excess melted chocolate run down to the ball, then release the coated ball on the plate covered with parchment paper.

Ingredienti e sostituzioni
You only need 5 simple ingredients to make this recipe and 3 for the coating. Here’s how to pick and swap them.

- Datteri Medjool – These create the sticky, caramel-like base for the balls, providing natural sweetness and binding the ingredients together. You can also use other date varieties, but you might need to adjust the quantity slightly as they can be less ‘juicy’.
- fiocchi d'avena – This adds structure and body to the balls, making them more substantial. Quick oats work just as well, or you can swap them for almond flour or quinoa flakes.
- Burro di arachidi – This brings a rich, nutty flavor and helps bind the mixture. You can also use almond butter or cashew butter. For a nut-free option, sunflower seed butter or tahini are fine.
- Arachidi Salate Arrostite – These provide a satisfying crunch and enhance the classic Snickers flavor with their saltiness. Any nuts like pecans, walnuts, or even seeds like hemp seeds, sunflower seeds, or pumpkin seeds are also great.
- Estratto di vaniglia – This enhances the overall flavor profile, adding a warm, sweet aroma to the balls.
- Gocce Di Cioccolato Fondente – This forms the delicious outer coating for the balls.
- Sale – A pinch of salt balances the sweetness of the chocolate, making the flavor more complex.
- Olio d'oliva – This helps to thin out the melted chocolate, making it smoother and easier to work with for coating the balls.

I consigli di Carine
Let me share a few more tips for a perfect snickers balls.
- Preparati in anticipo – You can prepare the date mixture a day in advance and store it in the fridge. This makes assembling the balls on the day of serving much quicker.
- Raffreddare bene – Don’t skip the refrigeration step before dipping the balls. Chilled balls hold their shape better and are easier to coat evenly with chocolate.
- Opzione senza noci – If you’re making these for someone with a nut allergy, swap the peanuts for sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds and use sunflower seed butter or tahini instead of peanut butter.
- Incremento di sapore – Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt flakes on top of the chocolate-coated balls just after dipping. This really makes the flavors pop.
- Burro di arachidi in polvere – For a higher protein, lower calorie, and lower fat version, use 3 tablespoons of powdered peanut butter instead of regular peanut butter. Do not rehydrate it first! If the batter seems too dry, add 1-2 tablespoons of water to the food processor to thin it out.
- Almond Snickers – Create an almond version of these balls by swapping the roasted peanuts for almonds and using almond butter in place of peanut butter.







Delicious, quick and easy!!

I made these, I used hemp seed. They turned out great. I needed to add some of the date water as the processor would not mix it. I will made again. Love your recipes, thank you !
