1/2 cup walnuts, raw (-OR- a mixture of walnuts and almonds)

1/2 cup dates, pitted and chopped

2 tablespoons (6 tsp) carob powder

3 tablespoons (9 tsp)cocoa powder

2 tablespoons (6 tsp) unsweetened coconut

1 tablespoon honey -OR- agave nectar

 

 

1. Chop nuts in a food processor until finely chopped.

 

2. Add dates and process again.

 

3. Add the rest of the ingredients in order and process until they are

mixed. The mixture should be dark brown and crumbly, but it should

hold together when pressed. If it doesn't hold together well enough

for you, add 1 to 2 more dates at the end.

 

4. Press into a small pan or a bowl, or roll into balls.

 

5. Refrigerate to harden, then cut into squares, if desired.

 

6. Keep refrigerated.
