Using our freshly made nutella in this simple raw slice works an absolute treat.  

Makes 12 bars

Ingredients

1 cup homemade nutella

½ cup hazelnuts (toasted)

1 ½ cup pitted dates (if hard, soak in warm water for 30 minutes)

3 Tbsp raw cacao powder

1-3 tsp water

Pinch salt

Topping

50g dark chocolate

Method

Line a 18 cm square dish with baking paper, set aside.

Add hazelnuts to a food processor and pulse until a coarse texture forms.

Add the nutella, dates, cacao powder, 1 teaspoon water and salt, pulse a few times. Test the mixture, as you want it to stick together.  If dry add 1 teaspoon of water at a time until the mix holds together.

Press the mixture firmly into your prepared tin and freeze for 30 minutes.

Melt the chocolate and drizzle over the bars, sprinkle with crushed hazelnuts and chill once again.

Cut into 12 bars

This slice will keep in your fridge for up to a week.
