Ingredients

Base

2 tablespoon maple syrup
⅔ cup almond meal
⅓ cup coconut flour
2 tablespoon coconut oil melted

Salted Caramel

1 ½ cups medjool dates pips removed
1 tablespoon almond butter
1 ½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup cold water
1 tablespoon maple syrup

Chocolate topping

3 tablespoon cocoa
2 tablespoon maple syrup
4 tablespoon coconut oil melted

Instructions

Base

In a large bowl, combine almond meal, coconut flour, maple syrup, and coconut oil and stir until well combined.
Line a loaf pan with baking paper.
Spread out base onto baking paper, using hands to gently knead the base into an even layer.

Salted Caramel

Combine dates, water, almond butter, salt (start with 1 teaspoon) and maple syrup into a high powdered blender.
Blend for 5 + minutes, or until dates become blended and smooth. You shouldn't be able to see any chunks of dates.**
Keep tasting and adding salt according to taste.
Spread salted caramel evenly over the base.
Freeze until hard - about 30 minutes.

Chocolate Layer

Combine cocoa, maple syrup, and coconut oil in a small bowl.
Apply evenly to salted caramel layer using a spoon.
Cut slice into thin pieces and enjoy!

Notes

* I used about 1 ½ teaspoons of salt, but adjust according to taste as you go.
** Date caramel needs to be really well blended to avoid chunky pieces. The blender will heat up as it blends the dates, so eventually you will have a nice, smooth and delicious date caramel. It just takes time!
