Walnuts are mentioned in the log post a couple of times but are not included in the recipe ingredients or instructions. Is something missing in the recipe?
original recipe used walnuts- chose peanuts for this 🙂
Is the oil essential for the date caramel? I would prefer not to use.
hi! you can just use any liquid including milk- just may take longer to set.
Does this need to be served frozen?
Can you substitute the Almond Flour with Oat Flour or Pecan Flour??
I cannot have almonds or peanuts.
pecan would work better!
Delicious, easy recipe! This came together super quickly and will be the perfect sweet treat hiding out in the freezer when I get a craving. I would suggest that you revisit the writing of the step by step instructions. They are slightly unclear and if someone were to follow them exactly as written they might not end up with a result that matches your photos. For ex: there is no mention of spreading the melted chocolate.
amazing and thank you, will look into that 🙂
This is such a lovely treat! Will definitely be making it again. As someone else posted, your instructions are not complete with regard to the melted chocolate.
thank you! will update:)
