9. Elevated Butterfingers

Submitted by Carol Peitzsch

Ingredients & Directions:
Put these ingredients in a food processor and chop until they are tiny crumbs:

  • ½ cup raw walnuts
  • ½ cup raw cashews

Then add in:

  • ½ cup dates
  • 1/8 tsp sea salt
  • And chop until thoroughly chopped but still crumbly.

Then add in the following and pulse a few times:

Finally, add 1 to 2 Tbsp nut butter of your choice (almond, peanut, etc.) and pulse until the mixture starts to clump:

Dump the mixture into a shallow plastic storage container (lined with baking paper to make it easier to cut later on) with a lid. Press down very firmly and set aside.

For the chocolate topping, you have a choice of melting a chocolate bar (you can even use a sugar-free one!) or using my favorite, creamy paleo topping:

Combine these ingredients in a small blender (don’t try to whisk or do it by hand—it won’t work!):

  • ¼ cup liquid coconut oil
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup raw cacao powder (unsweetened)
  • A couple drops pure vanilla extract

Blend until smooth and then quickly spread over your butterfinger base. Put the lid on and place in the freezer for at least two hours, and then slice up. Now try to just eat one!
