Chocolate Sauce:
3/4 cup dates soaked 15 minutes
1/4 cup soak water
1/4 cup coconut oil
2 1/2 tbsp cocoa powder
Here is a great raw chocolate sauce I invented using dates. I have used this for
Banana Popsicles
For these I just stuck a skinny craft stick in half a banana and then spread on natural peanut butter and then the chocolate sauce. Then freeze them. They are a lot easier to eat if you let them defrost a little before biting in.
Chocolate strawberries
Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups
For these I lined a muffin tin with foil (next time I will use paper liners) and the put a layer of chocolate sauce, layer of peanut butter filling (see recipe below), and then another layer of chocolate sauce.
Peanut Butter Filling
1/2 cup natural peanut butter
2 dates
1 banana
blend in food processor
* I also saw a recipe for peanut butter filling using nutritional yeast. I will have to try that one and let you know how it turns out.
** You need to freeze the chocolate sauce or at least refrigerate it to get it to firm up.
Amazing!The peanut-butter cups look fantastic, but I think I'll try the chocolate dipped fruit first. What a great way to dress up a simple fruit plate.
