12
medjool dates (pitted) , 1/2 cup
almonds, 1/2 cup
hazelnuts (no need to remove skins) , 4-ounce bar
dark chocolate (60% cocoa works well, broken into small pieces), 2 tablespoons
hemp seeds, 2 tablespoons
chia seed.
Place dates in a food processor and pulse
until well chopped. Add almonds and hazelnuts and pulse until chopped,
but a few large pieces remain. Remove cover and make a circular trough
in the mixture with the back of a small spoon.
Place chocolate pieces in a small bowl
over hot but not boiling water. Stir until melted. Carefully pour melted
chocolate into prepared trough in date-nut mixture. Replace cover and
pulse a few times, until just combined.
Scrape mixture onto a cutting board and
form a rough rectangle. Cut into eight equal pieces. Combine hemp and
chia seeds on a small plate. Mold each of the cut pieces into evenly
shaped bars, warming mixture with your hands. Press bars gently into
seeds to coat. Place on a small tray, cover with plastic, and
refrigerate for about an hour, or until very firm. Once firm, bars may
be individually wrapped and kept at room temperature.
