Wykonanie
DATE CARAMEL
Blend soaked dates thoroughly with melted coconut oil until you get a thick and sticky caramel. Spread a bit of coconut on the bottom of silicone molds to prevent from sticking and press caramel on the bottom of molds, halfway up (a few centimeters). Insert to the freezer.
CASHEW NOUGAT
Soaked and soft cashews blend with melted coconut oil and maple syrup until smooth. Then add the coconut flour and salt and blend again until the mixture is much more dense and compact. Now remove the previously frozen in molds date caramel and press down above similar amount of nougat and again put in the freezer. Allow to freeze during the night.
CHOCOLATE COATING
The next day, melt the chocolate over the steam. Next, remove cookies from the molds. Put each cookie on a fork and dip in chocolate glaze. When dipped in chocolate, slide gently on a lined with baking paper plate. Continue doing this until all Mars bars will be covered in chocolate and put them in the freezer until hard. Bars should be stored in the fridge all the time, the chocolate melts fairly quickly, so after removal from the it you should eat them right away and not wait :)
