A special thanks to Christine Baker for this yummy treat!

 

Ingredients

3 dl hulled sesame seeds

2 tbsp finely ground flaxseeds

2 tbsp cacao powder

½ tsp vanilla powder

A pinch salt

About 9 juicy pitted dates

½ dl maple syrup

coconut flakes

 

Instructions

Begin with the dry ingredients. Blend them in a food processor until they are a very  fine powder. Add the dates and maple syrup and continue blending until you have a thick paste, similar to almond paste. Stop to scrape the sides several times. It will take a few minutes before the paste forms. (The oil from the sesame seeds comes out at last.) Press the paste out in a form. Flatten to about 1 cm thick. Chill for at least one hour before serving. If you like, you can decorate with coconut flakes. Cut them into bite-size pieces.
