Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients

  • ½ cup coconut butter melted
  • ½ cup shredded coconut finely chopped, unsweetened
  • 5 pitted dates soaked in hot water for 10 minutes
  • ½-¾ cup chocolate chips
  • flaked sea salt

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, add the dates and cover them with hot water. Let them sit for 10 minutes or longer. (We will be using 2 tbsp of the 'date water' so don't pour it out!)
  • After 10 minutes of soaking, add the dates plus 2 tbsp of water to a high speed blender. Blend until a smooth paste forms.
  • In a medium bowl, add the melted coconut butter, finely chopped coconut and date paste. Mix until fully combined.
  • Using your hands form the mixture into 10 log shaped pieces. Place them on a plate and allow them to set in the freezer for 1 hour.
  • Now, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl. I like to microwave them in 15 second increments stirring after each time until fully melted.
  • Dip each coconut candy in the melted chocolate until completely covered and sprinkle the top with sea salt. Place them back in the fridge to set.
  • Once the chocolate has harden, enjoy!
