Additional options

Ok so these have lots of sugar through the amount of date syrup or agave, but whats a dessert if not rich and chocolaty. After a great, healthy meal, your body will thank you for a rich and tasty dessert such as this. To top it off add some nuts or additional chocolate pieces

  • Unsalted pistachio nuts, finely chopped (optional)
  • Vegan semisweet chocolate pieces (optional)
