- Step 2 :To make the caramel, blend dates, maple syrup, almond butter, salt and vanilla in a food processor until creamy. Add the coconut oil last and blend until smooth. Spread over the nougat and freeze the whole slice overnight.
- Step 3 :Prepare the chocolate by whisking the ingredients together until no lumps remain.
