Ingredients
- 12 Medjool Dates pitted
- 1 Cup Cocoa Powder
- ½ Cup Maple Syrup
- 1 Teaspoon Salt
- 10-15 Almonds
- 1 Cup Melted Dark Chocolate I use Hu or Lily’s
- Shredded Coconut toasted
Instructions
- In a food processor, blend the dates, maple syrup, cocoa powder, and salt until you have a thick, sticky dough. Roll into ovals or small balls. Press an almond into each. Slightly flatten for that “candy bar” feel.
- Place shaped dough on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 20–30 minutes. This makes dipping much easier. Melt your dark chocolate, then dip each candy bar until fully coated. Return to the tray.
- While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle on toasted coconut. Let them chill in the fridge until set, then enjoy!
