In a bowl, add about a half a cup of dates, pitted.

Add 1 cup of almonds and 1 cup of walnuts to the bowl.

Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt.

Process the ingredients in a food processor until they reach a coarse sand texture that sticks together when pressed.

Pour the mixture into a pie plate and press it into the bottom and up the sides to form the crust.

In a saucepan, heat 1 can of full fat coconut milk and 1/4 cup of coconut oil until about boiling.

In the food processor, add 2 cups of bittersweet chocolate.

Pour the hot coconut milk and coconut oil mixture over the chocolate and let it sit for about a minute to melt the chocolate.

Blend the mixture in the food processor until smooth and homogeneous, resembling a loose pudding.

Pour the chocolate filling into the prepared crust.

Refrigerate the pie for a couple of hours until it sets.
