Vanilla Pecan Treats

This ‘Vanilla Thriller’ is as delicious, as it is easy to make and they’re perfect for treating other moms when they come over for tea. So why not get the kids involved and make a batch so you can all enjoy?

Vanilla Pecan Treats

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Makes 14

Ingredients

100 g packet vanilla wafer biscuits
250 ml SPAR icing sugar
30 ml SPAR 100% Pure Orange Juice
100 g packet pecan nuts

Method

Place the biscuits in a food processor and crumb finely on full speed.
Add in the icing sugar and juice, and process further to a paste.
Lastly add the nuts in one action, processing briefly to finely chop but not crumb them.
Using your hands, scoop out and form large marble-size balls from the mixture.
Refrigerate until firm, then roll them in icing sugar to coat well.

No food processor? No problem, just place the biscuits in a bag or dishcloth and use a rolling pin to crumb them.
Use a sharp knife and chopping board for the nuts.
Try other wafer biscuit flavours and nut combinations e.g. chocolate wafers with nibbed almonds, or strawberry wafers with unsalted cashews.
