Cooking Instructions
1.
In a food processor, process the Medjool Dates (11), Almonds (4 Tbsp), Walnuts (4 Tbsp), Hazelnuts (4 Tbsp), Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (4 Tbsp), Flaxseeds (1 Tbsp), and Kosher Salt (1 pinch) for 3 minutes until blended.
2.
Transfer to a greased 8x8-inch baking dish and press the crust down with the back of a spoon until it is firm and even.
3.
Wash out the processor and add Bananas (2), Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (4 Tbsp), Creamy Peanut Butter (4 Tbsp), Maple Syrup (4 Tbsp), and Kosher Salt (1 pinch). Process until smooth and silky.
4.
Pour over the crust. Smooth it out evenly with a spatula. Cover and place in the freezer for about 5 hours, or until firm.
5.
Once firm, garnish with the Finishing Salt (to taste) and cut into squares. Serve straight from the freezer, or allow to thaw for a few minutes before serving. Keep the leftovers in the freezer.
