Description
Selection of sweets at the fasting is small, and sometimes the nicer they treat. These candies can be made from a minimum of ingredients, which are always in the house, it is unlikely someone will guess that the main ingredient in them – the usual carrot. They taste very unusual and pleasant, though perhaps someone (like me :)) they will seem too sweet. Home but my sweet tooth was delighted!

Cooking
Everything is very simple. The most difficult is to grate carrots on a fine grater.
Fill the same quantity of sugar (you can use regular, but with a brown taste richer).
And cook on low heat until a homogeneous slurry. I was preparing a "demonstration" of one of the carrots and I had boiling for 10 minutes.
When the fluid will no longer be visible, add the zest (can be vanilla, the flavor will be slightly different), mix well and remove from heat.
Pour the sifted through a strainer cocoa. Again mix well, cool. From the resulting mass roll into balls (inside you can put a hard, dried cranberry – according to your desire; nothing I was stuffed). And roll in sesame seeds or chopped nuts, or even cacao. I've reduced the amount of ingredients in half, I got 8 candies. Help yourself!
