Ingredients
 

  • 1 cup walnuts
  • 1 cup roasted hazelnuts
  • 1 cup soft/fresh dates
  • 2 tbsp raw cacao powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 3/4 cup coconut oil melted *
  • 3 tbsp raw cacao powder *
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup *
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract *

Instructions

  • place the walnuts and hazelnuts in a blender/ food processor and blend until you get a flour-like consistency
  • to that, add the dates, cinnamon and cacao powder. Blend until you get a semi- sticky mixture that when you press it between your fingers, it holds together
  • in a bread pan(like one for banana bread)/ square container add the mixture and with your fingers/ back of a spoon push the mixture down and around, forming a nice and even layer
  • for the chocolate part, add the coconut oil in a small sauce pan on medium heat and let it melt completely before add all of the rest ingredients, stirring non-stop until everything is well combined
  • finally, pour the chocolate over the first layer, cover the pan and place it in a freezer(I recommend you leave it overnight)

Notes

*these ingredients will be needed to make the chocolate layer, but you can alternatively use a melted dark chocolate instead
