The most decadent tasting, rich and chocolatey treat, with minimum amounts of guilt.
These taste as naughty as anything, but have zero refined sugar, dairy or wheat and I challenge you to only eat one...
It's impossible.
Pop a couple in your bag as an afternoon treat at work and you'll have a little buzz of energy for the rest of the avo.
Packed full of ooey gooey dates, sticky PB, dark chocolate and nuts.
I'll probably be making another batch on the weekend as they only take about 10 mins to make!
What you'll need //
50g cashew nuts
100g dark chocolate
100g destoned dates
50g coconut oil (melted)
50g good quality cocoa powder
3 tbsp peanut butter (I used Meridian cos they're good to the Orangutans'!)
2 tbsp honey
handful pistachios
sprinkle freeze dried raspberries (optional)
What to do//
Line a baking dish with greaseproof paper - approx 6x6in.
Place your cashews into a food mixer and blend into small pieces.
Chop up 50g of your dark chocolate into small pieces, (not all 100g of it!) and add this into the blender along with the dates, coconut oil, cocoa powder, PB and honey. Blend on a high setting. You may need to scrap down the sides and blend again.
Smush the mixture into your lined dish with the back of a spoon making it as flat as possible.
Leave to chill in the fridge whilst you melt the remaining 50g of dark chocolate in a bain marie, or gently in the microwave stirring every 20 seconds, (don't heat it on too high!) Drizzle over the top of the mixture.
Chop up some pistachios (I used about 25 - yes I did count them for you :) ) and sprinkle over the top along with your freeze dried raspberries.
Chill for as long as you can be bothered to wait.
Chop into small squares, (trust me you won't want much bigger than this as they're super decadently rich).
Bobs your uncle.
Fanny's your aunt.
