- 2 ½ cups (400g) pitted dates
- 1 ½ cups (150g) walnuts
- 1/2 cup (60g) cocoa powder

- 1/4 cup (30g) cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup (80g) honey or agave/maple syrup
- 2 tbsp (30g) coconut oil , melted
- 1/2 tsp (2.5g) vanilla extract
Instructions
- Place the walnuts, dates, walnuts, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, coconut oil and salt into the bowl of a food processor. Process until completely combined and the mixture holds together.
- Slightly grease a 8×8 inch (20x20cm) square pan and line with parchment paper, in such a way that some edges are longer to make it easy to lift it up once it's set.
- Spread the mixture into the prepared baking pan and press with the back of a wet spoon to create a smooth surface.
- Prepare the frosting. In a small bowl combine the cocoa with honey (agave/maple syrup), coconut oil and vanilla extract.
- Spread evenly over the mixture in the pan.
- Refrigerate for 2 hours to set. Keep leftovers refrigerated.
