2/3 cup Camino Organic cocoa powder
1¼ cup almonds, ground
3/4 cup Middle Eastern or Medjool fresh dried dates, pitted (mineral rich source of carbs)

1/4 tsp sea salt
Hemp seeds, to sprinkle bars or roll balls in, if desired (Omega 3 rich)

1. Process cocoa powder and almonds.
2. Add dates, coconut oil, and sea salt; puree until mixture sticks together. If needed, add a little more coconut butter or dates to adjust texture to desired stickiness and level of sweetness.
