These bars are best eaten cool, as the warmer they get, the more sticky they are. 

Snack Bars
  1. Wash and soak the cashews and dates. Remember to de-seed the dates!
  2. Soak in water for 10 minutes 
  3. Pull the dates in half, so that they are in slices
  4. Using a food processor blend the dates and cashews, together.
  5. In 5 minute intervals scrape the sides of the food processor using a spatula. To encourage the coarse areas to blend until smooth.
  6. Blend until completely smooth.
  7. Put baking paper, into the bottom of a tray or rectangular glass container. (preferably seal-able)
  8. Spread the mixture evenly on the top of the baking paper, making sure it is flat. 
  9. Optional: Put baking paper over the top and use your hands to apply pressure to flatten.
  10. Using a spatula smooth over the top evenly.
  11. Cover with cling film and place in the freezer for a minimum of  30 minutes maximum 1 hour.
  12. Slice the frozen mixture into snack bars and wrap in baking paper to eat.
  13. I used crumbled pistachio's for my topping, but it's optional.
Easy, tastes good & improves digestion!
