Dark chocolate has less sugar and more antioxidants.

Start with a dry food processor.

Add 1 cup of almonds and 1/2 cup of hemp seeds to the food processor.

Grind the nuts and seeds until they are nice and fine.

Add a pinch of salt to enhance flavors.

Add 1/2 cup of cacao powder to the mixture.

Chop 1 cup of medjool dates and add them to the food processor.

Process the mixture until it reaches a crumbly texture.

Add water gradually to achieve a chewy consistency, depending on the moisture of the dates.

Mix until the dough is sticky and holds together when squeezed.

Prepare a container lined with parchment paper for pressing the dough.

Press the dough into the lined container with your hands.

Chill the pressed dough in the fridge or freezer until firm.

Melt 1 cup of dark chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon of coconut oil over a double boiler.

Ensure that the bowl and utensils used for melting chocolate are dry to prevent seizing.

Remove the chilled bars from the container and cut them into pieces.

Dip each piece into the melted chocolate using a fork, coating completely.

Lift the coated bars, tapping off excess chocolate, and place them on a parchment-lined tray.
