Bean candies
Description
Beans themselves have a neutral taste, but thanks to their dense texture, they can be used to make various pâtés and snacks—so why not candies too? Add raisins, walnuts, and dates, and you'll get something sweet and tender. If desired, roll the candies in sesame seeds, coconut flakes, or cocoa powder. Store these candies in the refrigerator.
