Ingredients
1 cup chopped dates
¾ cup peanut butter
½ cup flaked coconut
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 pinch salt (Optional)
Directions
Place the dates, peanut butter, coconut, cocoa powder and salt into a food processor. Cover, and blend until smooth, about 4 minutes. The mixture will be very sticky.
Press the mixture into a loaf pan lined with waxed paper. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Remove the chilled mixture from the pan and slice into 6 bars. Wrap each bar in foil and refrigerate until serving.
Editor's Note
To be sure your bars are truly raw treats, look for raw cocoa powder at your specialty food store.
