Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Line an 8" x 4" loaf pan with foil or parchment paper.
- Make the brownie crust: In a large mixing bowl, combine the tahini, maple syrup and vanilla. Mix in the coconut flour, cacao powder and salt. The dough will be thick.
- Press the brownie crust into the lined pan.
- Make the chocolate caramel: Place the pitted dates in a bowl and heat a pot of water. Once hot, pour the water over the dates (fully submerging them) and let them soak for 5 minutes.
- Drain the water from the dates, squeezing out as much of the moisture as possible. Add the dates to your food processor, along with the tahini, vanilla and cacao powder.
- Blend the mixture, stopping every so often to scrape the sides, until you have a caramel paste.
- Spread the caramel over the brownie crust.
- Make the Fudge Topping: Place the coconut cream and dark chocolate in a small saucepan and melt on the stove top, over low heat. Once melted, pour the fudge topping over the caramel filling.
- Put the bars in the fridge overnight to set. Then cut into 12 equally sized bars.
Notes
Storage: keep bars in an airtight container or baggie in the fridge or freezer.
