Equipment

  • 1 14-cup Food Processor

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup pecans
  • 1 cup walnuts
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1.5 cup pitted medjool dates
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla
  • 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Place all ingredients in the food processor except the chocolate chips. Pulse until it starts to blend and incorporate. Then process steadily until it begins to turn into a dough. Be careful not to over-process as the oils will begin to release from the nuts.
  • Add the chocolate chips and pulse + process a few more times until they are just incorporated.
  • Place this dough into a parchment lined loaf pan. Fold parchment paper over the dough and press down to flatten and compress the bars. Place in the freezer for 1 hour before cutting. Store in the freezer.
