- Use a high quality food processor or blender to crush the dates. Use 2 tbsp of hot water if the dates turn out to be too fibrous. Tip this mixture into a bowl.
- Now add the walnuts and cocoa powder to the blender and pulse until the mixture is homogenous, almost sand-like.
- Mix the nut mixture with the date pulp and add a pinch of salt. Bring it all together like dough.
- At this point, add more crushed walnuts if the mixture is too sticky. If it is too dry, pulse 2-3 dates and add them in until you achieve the right consistency of dough like mixture. Incorporate the chopped nuts into this and mix.
- Press the prepared mix into a greased square shaped cake tin and allow to cool and set for 5-6 hours in the fridge.
- Cut into squares and serve.
