Base layer:

½ cup fresh Medjool dates (approx 4 pitted and at room temp)

1 cup Almond flour

¼ cup Coconut oil


Topping:

⅔ cup Cocoa powder

⅔ cup Coconut oil

2 Tbsp Maple Syrup


Method: 

  1. Add all base layer ingredients into a food processor and blend until crumbly. Press down into a baking dish. 
  2. Add all ingredients for the date caramel layer into a food processor and blend until smooth (Optional* I added a handful of diced peanuts to add some crunch)
  3. Pour over the base layer. Then melt the coconut oil for the topping layer and add ingredients together, make sure you sift the cocoa powder. Add to the top and pop into the freezer for about 20 minutes and she’s ready!
