shared by our gorgeous friend Lee, founder of Genie Chocolates
ingredients
1 cup almonds
1 cup cashews
1/2 cup walnuts
1/2 cup pepitas
1 cup shredded coconut
1/2 cup quinoa flakes
1/4 cup goji berries
2 tablespoons ground flax seed
1 tablespoon beetroot powder (could use acai, pitya or any berry powder or omit)*
*this is what makes it a gorgeous pink colour and adds the extra antioxidants
method
Blitz nuts and seeds in a food processor to your preferred texture, then transfer to a bowl.
Melt 1/2 cup cacao butter over a double boiler.
Once melted stir in 2 tablespoons raw honey, (maple syrup or sweetener of choice).
Add to dry mix and stir through.
Press into a lined baking tray and refrigerate until set.
Once set, slice up and drizzle with dark chocolate if desired. I used a 100g bag of Loco Love chocolate chips.
Lee recommends half and half, keeping half raw and drizzling half with chocolate.
