I LOVE this recipe. I had to change it a bit because of cashew allergies. I was inspired by a healthy nutella recipe, so I added roasted hazelnuts instead of cashews. Sooooo good! I also soaked the dates in 2 cups of hot water, then saved the water to blend with the nuts, and add extra if it got too thick. I also omitted the flax because I didn’t see the point of it and wanted to reduce the fat.
