Ingredients

- 3/4 cup medjool dates (pitted)
- 6 tablespoons raw cocoa powder
- ½ cup raw coconut butter
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 banana
- 2 large avocados
- 2 tablespoons water
Method
Base Layer
Place almonds, water, 2 tablespoons of raw cocoa powder, desiccated coconut, and dates in a food processor and blend all ingredients into a chunky paste that sticks together. Press this mixture firmly into a shallow rectangular baking tray lined with baking paper until smooth and firm.
Top Layer
Wash out food processor and use to prepare the top layer of the slice.
Place avocado, coconut butter, remaining raw cocoa, maple syrup, and banana into the blender/ food processor and blend until smooth and creamy. Scoop this mixture onto the base layer and spread evening to get a smooth even surface. Sprinkle coconut flakes on top. Place in fridge for 2 hours to set.
Handy Tip:
This slice can be frozen. It keeps well in the fridge if stored in an airtight container for 1 week.
