Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 cups pecans
  • 2 cups pitted dates
  • ½ cup cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsp melted coconut oil
  • ½ tsp salt added to balance with the sweetness from the dates
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Add all the ingredients to a food processor.
  • Process until everything comes together, about 3 minutes.
  • Press the mixture down into a 7" by 11" inch pan, or 9" by 9" inch glass baking dish.
  • Chill in the refrigerator for about on hour.
  • Cut into bars, and serve.

Notes

  • If the mixture feels sticky, use wet hands to press the bar mixture into the pan.
  • Line your glass pan with a piece of parchment paper before pressing the mix into the pan. This makes it easy to remove them to a cutting board to slice.
  • Use a really sharp knife to cut the mix into individual bars. You can make larger bars or little mini ones.
