- Mixing the Ingredients
Place cashews, almonds, coconut, dates, cocoa, coconut oil, vanilla, cold coffee, cayenne and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse on and off to start. Process about 1 minute; check to ensure mixture is sticky and moist enough to stick together. Add more coffee if needed. Continue to process until mixture becomes a chunky mass.
- Mixing the Ingredients
Line a baking pan with plastic wrap. Scoop mixture into pan. Press down with a spatula until mixture is even. Place a layer of plastic wrap on the surface and smooth again with your hands.
- Resting and Cooling
Refrigerate until cold and firm, 2 or 3 hours.
- Plating and Serving
Remove from the pan and unwrap. Cut into bars of your preferred size. Store in a zip top back in the refrigerator.
