Ingredients

Instructions

Ingredients

1 ½ cup walnuts
12 pitted dates
1 cup cashews
4 tbsp coconut oil, melted
3 tbs pure maples syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
Melted dark chocolate (I use stevia chocolate chips) (or you can use equal parts melted coconut oil and carob powder if you want a chocolate alternative.

Instructions

Combine walnuts and dates in food processor. I processed walnuts first then added in dates.
Press the mixture into the bottom of a lined baking dish.
In a food processor combine cashews, coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick add hot water one tablespoon at a time until you reach a creamy consistency.
Add this layer to baking sheet on top of your bottom layer and freeze while you melt your chocolate.
Pour the melted chocolate on top of the previous layer and let this set in the freezer for 30 minutes.
Slice your bars and enjoy!
