Grape Truffles

30 min

10 - 15 servings (30 pieces)

A savoury twist on truffles. Can be made the day before.

Ingredients

  • 1⁄2 cup coarsely chopped toasted almonds
  • 1⁄4 cup cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 3 tbsp milk
  • 1 - 2 tsp 3 Onion Dip Mix, or Epicure’s Guacamole Dip Mix
  • 30 seedless grapes

Preparation

  1. Place almonds in a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped. Remove from processor.
  2. Place cream cheese, milk and 3 Onion Dip Mix into food processor. Whirl until smooth. It should have a creamy but not runny consistency. Scrape into a bowl.
  3. Working with one grape at a time, dip into cheese mixture, then roll in nuts. (Tip: pierce grape with a toothpick, then swirl in cheese mixture.) Once all grapes are coated, place on a plate and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes, until chilled.
