squares - chocolate-date

By tinathorn

Ingredients

• 1 cup Medjool Dates (about 9-10 large dates), pitted
• 1/2 cup Unsalted Cashews
• 1/4 cup Raw Walnuts
• 1/4 cup Raw Pepitas (Shelled Pumpkin Seeds)
• 1/4 cup Cacao Powder

Preparation

Step 1

1. Place nuts and pepitas in a food processor and pulse a few times to grind fairly fine.
2. Add dates and cocoa powder to food processor and process until finely ground and starting to clump together. If it doesn’t clump together a little bit or the dough feels a little dry to the touch, add one more date and process again.
3. Press into half of a 9”x9” pan.
4. Chill for at least 1 hour before cutting into squares or bars. Enjoy!
