Yield: 12

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup raw cacao butter
  • 1/2 cup raw cashews finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup raw almonds finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup mulberries
  • 2 tablespoons hemp seeds (or flax seeds)
  • 1/2 cup coconut butter
  • 2 tablespoons lucuma powder optional
  • 1/2 cup pea protein* sweetened with stevia (my favorite is shown below))
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons honey raw, unfiltered (substitute for agave nectar to create a vegan recipe)
  • 1/4 cup goji berries
  • 1 tablespoon maca root powder (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons raw cacoa powder or nibs (optional)

Directions:

  • Melt the cacao butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
  • In a food processor, combine half of the cashews and half of the almonds, all of the mulberries, hemp seeds, coconut butter, lucuma powder, protein powder*, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  • Remove cacao butter from heat and add honey to the saucepan.
  • Slowly pulse nuts and powder mixture in food processor while adding the melted cacao butter and honey in a steady stream. The mixture will form a dough-like texture.
  • Remove dough from processor and place in a bowl. Add remaining nuts, goji berries, and cacao nibs. Dough should be very thick. However, if it is too thick to mix, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time until the mixture combines, but remains very thick.
  • Press dough into a 13x9-inch baking dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  • Cut into bars.
  • Note: For chocolate protein bars, either use chocolate protein powder* or add 2 tablespoons of cacao powder in step 5.

Notes:
