🍴 Ingredients (Makes 6–8 Small Squares)

  • 10 soft dates (or soaked in warm water for 30 minutes)
  • ½ cup tahini
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1–2 tablespoons milk (only if needed for blending)
  • 30–50 g refined sugar-free or dark chocolate (for topping)

👩‍🍳 How to Make It

  1. Soak the Dates:
    If your dates aren’t soft, soak them in warm water for about 30 minutes. This not only softens them but also makes peeling easier. Remove the pits.
  2. Blend the Base:
    Add the pitted dates, tahini, and cocoa powder to a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth.
    If the mixture is too thick to blend, add 1–2 tablespoons of milk, just enough to help it come together.
  3. Press Into a Pan:
    Line a small container or dish with parchment paper. Press the mixture evenly into the base using the back of a spoon or your hands.
  4. Chill:
    Place the brownie base in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
  5. Add the Chocolate Topping:
    Melt your chocolate using a double boiler (bain-marie) method. Once melted, pour over the chilled brownie base and spread evenly.
  6. Set the Chocolate:
    Pop the pan into the freezer for about 5 minutes, just until the chocolate sets.

Slice, serve, and enjoy every fudgy, nutty, naturally sweet bite! 🍫🌰
