when my granddaughters made these balls they asked if they could leave out the coffee...my son suggested making half with/half without. When we had a blind tasting from the two piles it was a 50:50 split. adults preferred with coffee,/children those without. the coffee seems to suppress what could otherwise be overpowering sweetness (to adults anyway- coffee suppresses it, even if it is difficult to identify the 'magic' ingredient)
Have fun! enjoy making &eating them!
I'll not recommend that for longer period of time as this recipe contain butter which has to be refrigerated to keep fresh.
]]>I've never tried making them with reduced sugar. However, I have recently experimented with dates in other recipes. I'm quite sure that mashed dates can be a great alternative to the sugar :-)

]]>Hi Ligia. You can use both types. You can also get butter with or without salt in Denmark. I normally uses butter with salt.
