Somehow, I managed to find room in my heart for one more candy bar. I guess, if I were to admit my one fault, it’s that I love too much…(candy). This recipe has been bouncing around in my head for a while now – the challenging part being the nougat. I already knew how to whip up a mean date caramel (pats shoulder) and melt chocolate (pats other shoulder), but the perfect nougat had eluded me…until now. This 6-ingredient, 30-minute recipe starts with a date-based nougat that’s so easy I don’t know how I didn’t think of it before. Can you find it in your candy-loving heart to forgive me? Please say yes, please say yes. Dates are blended into a sticky ball, and then coconut flour and almond flour transform it into a perfect, moldable dough that takes on the flavor and characteristics of a (terrible-for-you, corn-syrup-laden) nougat. That’s what I call 4-ingredient magic. Next comes date caramel. And lastly, melted chocolate with a dash of coconut oil to ensure it’s the perfect consistency for dipping. We’re getting close. Can you feel it? I know you guys are going to LOVE these bars!
