Kitchen History
The creator remembers both these truffles and her No-Bake Energy Bites as household staples. Tom enjoyed sweets, and she prepared these homemade alternatives to reduce their reliance on store-bought snacks made with ingredients she didn't want to use. These were made repeatedly, not merely collected to try.
