Kale
Kale is quickly becoming one of the most popular health foods today. Rich in vitamins K, A and C and low in calorie, high in fiber and has zero fat. Kale is a food that has many health benefits such as detoxification, heart support, cancer prevention, improves eyesight and is anti inflammatory.
Cacao
Cacao is a source of natural chocolate and has an abundance of health properties from lowering blood pressure, focus and alertness, aids digestion and bowel related diseases to enhancing your mood. It is very rich in minerals like iron and has more calcium then cow’s milk, and a good source of sulphur, magnesium and phenylethylamine and is an excellent source of monounsaturated fat, cholesterol-free saturated fat, vitamins, minerals, fiber, natural carbohydrates and protein.
Cacao is the purest form of chocolate you can consume!

- 1/4 cup Cocoa butter
- 2 tbs Cocoa
- 1 tbs Carob Powder

2. Add in the cocoa butter, cocoa, carob powder, kale and date syrup and process it all again until mixture has combined completely.
3. Cut up your raw chocolate bar into small pieces and add into the food processor along with the cocoa nibs and pulse it in as you don’t want to ruin the chunky bits of raw chocolate.
5. Using your hands, roll a small amount of mixture in your hands into a ball, press down so you have a cookie shape and put on grease proof paper on a baking tray.
6. Put into the freezer for 30 minutes.
