Bounty chocolates (almost raw)

These are just a mouthful of heaven! I wanted to make them completely raw, but I couldn't get cocoa butter, so I had to use regular dark (milk free, of course) chocolate. They are really easy to make, and you are gonna love these, I promise!


RECIPE
2 dl large dates, soaked in water for 20 minutes
1 dl water (I use soaking water from the dates)
4-6 dl shredded coconut (just add more and more until you can shape them)
Dash of pure vanilla
2 tbsp ground flaxseeds
1/2 dl coconut oil
Next time I will add a couple tbsp of yacon- or agavesyrup
300 grams dark chocolate

Drain the water from the dates (exept 1/2 dl) and put them in the food processor. Add the water and blend until smooth. Add the vanilla, coconut oil, the flaxseed-flour and 4 dl coconut, and blend a little more (pulse), and add more and more coconut until the batter looks about right. It should neither be too mushy or too hard. You should be able to shape the batter into balls or "breads" or whatever you want them to look like. Put them on wax paper on a tray, and put them in the freezer (or fridge) for about half an hour.
Melt the chocolate, I use the microwave. Let it cool a bit, and then use a fork to dip the Bountys and cover them completely with the chocolate. Put them back on the tray and sprinkle a little shredded coconut over them before they harden, and put them back in the freezer for 10-15 minutes.

Place them in a box and keep them in the refrigerator.
