Ingredients
- 1 cup pitted soft medjool dates, packed
- 1 cup salted peanuts
- ½ cup walnuts
- ¼ cup vanilla protein powder
- ¼ cup CC cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp chocolate chips
- ½ tsp coconut oil
Instructions
- Line a loaf pan with parchment or wax paper. If your dates are hard, soak them in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes to soften up.
- Place dates, peanuts, and walnuts in the bowl of a large food processor. Process a minute or two, or until a crumbly mixture is formed.
- Add CC cocoa powder and protein powder. Use a spatula to break apart and sit mixture a bit by hand before processing again until a dough ball is formed. If mixture won’t form a ball, add a tablespoon of water.
- Place mixture in a pan and flatten well with hands until even and smooth.
- Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in a small microwave-safe bowl. Drizzle over bars and top with crushed peanuts.
- Freeze overnight. Cut into 8-10 bars. Store in air-tight container in freezer for best texture.
- Take out of freezer and experience a healthy tasty Cream Cocoa treat!
