There is no processed sugar in these, but they satisfy a sweet tooth and are plenty sweet thanks to the dates, raisins and honey that are in them. The coconut oil adds a bit of sweetness, too.
Start with processing the nuts in a high speed blender or a food processor until crumbly. I have a little one who does not like nuts, so I went pretty powdery with my nuts to keep her happy. She devoured these and kept asking for more!
Add dates, keep processing until they are in small pieces & mixed well.
Add the rest of your ingredients. Process until consistency can be rolled into a ball…a messy ball. Keep scraping the sides of your blender or processor to help blend.
Make sure you lick that spoon!
Press mixture into a lined pan. I used my fingers but then smoothed my prints out with the back of a spoon to make it pretty for all of you!
Mix up the icing.
Are you drooling yet? This is the best part. Mmmmmm.
Top bars with icing. Use a bit of water to thin if too thick. If too thin, don’t worry, it will firm up in the freezer.
The texture of this slice is so satisfying. It is chewy even when frozen, easy to bite into. The frosting melts so creamy in your mouth. I love that they are cold, too, which really adds to the satisfaction!

May 14, 2014 at 11:13 pmDo you make your own peanut butter? Or do you have a specific brand you use? Thank you for all your inspiring posts! God is using you in mighty ways!

May 15, 2014 at 7:44 pmI tried using 100% peanuts grounded, but got sick of stirring and my kids didn’t like it. Right now most of the time we use Jiffy Natural. I also love that our local health food store has organic peanuts that you can ground fresh right in the store. That is delish!

January 23, 2014 at 2:24 pmI am wondering if this recipe is missing a couple of key ingredients. The directions for the slices mention adding cocoa and vanilla, but neither are found among the list of ingredients until you get to the icing. Does the ‘fudge’ part of the recipe also contain cocoa and vanilla? Just wanting to confirm before I make it. Sounds yummy!
