I just made these. Incredible!!!!!! I put a little filtered water with them as well as I was making them in a blender instead of a food processor. So good will have to make another batch as their nearly all gone
Why did you add water? Do you make it the same if you use a blender?
Hi Kelly~
You add water if they are really thick. You can make them in a blender as well. The food processor works best, though. Hope you are enjoying!
How much do you process this? To a paste? should it be chunky?
I am so trying this!
Hi Willow~
I leave mine a little chunky. You don’t want it super smooth. Good luck! They are delicious!
