METHOD
1. Soak the 15 dates in 100 ml boiled water for 20 minutes.
2. While the dates are soaking, melt your coconut in a saucepan. Just melt it, it doesn’t have to stay hot.
3. Add the dates, coconut oil and cacao to a blender and blend it on a high speed until everything is mixed well and smooth.
4. Take a piece of greaseproof paper and put the mixture on it. Smooth it out with a spoon and place the crumbled walnuts (just do this with your hands) within the mixture. You can also put them on top and add other types of nuts for a more crunchy bite.
5. Put it in the freezer and let it set completely (around 1 hour minimum). After you remove it from the freezer, make slices of it and you’re ready to enjoy!
YUMMY! Let me know what you think, girls 🙂
