CAULDRON CAKES | HARRY POTTER SERIES

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 175C/350F.
• Mix together the spice mix and place in a air tight container. You'll only be using a bit of this mix for this recipe.
• Spray the food processor with the canola oil so the dates don't stick.
• In batches, heat up the dates (in a small microwavable bowl) in the microwave for 10-15 secs to soften.
• Place in the food processor and blend, then repeat with the rest.
• By hand, mix the 1 1/2 tsp of spice mix and 1/2 tsp of almond essence into the date mixture.
• Set aside.
• In a mixer, beat the butter, then add in the sugar.
• Beat for a few minutes until creamy.
• Add in the flour, then the water.
• Turn out onto a board dusted with plain flour.
• Roll out relatively thinly, and cut out circles.
• Spray your cookie tray with canola oil spray.
• Place one circle into a cookie hole.
• Take a small ball of the date mixture, and press with your fingers into a flattened circle.
• Place into the cookie tray on top of the dough.
• Place another cookie dough circle on top.
• Press the middle down, then press the edges together.
• Repeat, then place in the oven to bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown.
• Remove from the oven, use the back of a large spoon to gently press the centres (to keep the indentation), then set aside to cool.
• Dust with icing sugar and serve.
