For the caramel layer:
8 large organic medjool dates (pitted)
1/2 tablespoon cacao butter
2 tablespoons organic lucuma powder
1/4 teaspoon organic vanilla extract
For the nut layer:
1/2 cup organic raw hazelnuts (hand crushed)
1) Divide the caramel into 8 pieces, then roll into a ball shape in the palms of your hand.
Instructions:
For the hazelnut spread topping:
1/4 cup Raw Vegan Nutella * (we used more, about double this amount)
For the garnish:
2 tablespoons organic goji berries
Prepare the hazelnuts:
1/4 cup Raw Vegan Nutella * (we used more, about double this amount)
2 tablespoons organic goji berries
Prepare the hazelnuts:
1) Using the flat surface of a butter knife, crush each hazelnut by hand into small pieces. Set aside.
Prepare the caramel layer
2) Flatten them out in the palm of your hand into a small disk shape.
3) Press down into the crushed hazelnuts, making sure it is completely covered in hazelnuts. Fill in any empty spaces by hand.
4) With your fingers, press the hazelnuts firmly into the caramel disk to make sure they don't fall off and then put them on a piece of wax or parchment paper.
5) Put them into the freezer for approximately 15 - 30 minutes or until they have firmed up.
6) Take a small spoonful of the Raw nutella chocolate hazelnut spread and put it on the top of the cluster and spread gently until the entire top is covered.
7) Optional: Garnish with goji berries.
8) Put back into the freezer for approximately 15 - 30 minutes or until the Raw nutella has firmed up.
Store in the freezer until you are ready to serve because they will become soft and lose their shape if left out at room temperature.
