These are less a healthy snack and more a healthier twist on a childhood favorite. Still some sugar in here, but perfect for those special occasions when you want to give a treat but mitigate the sugar damage. As always, all ingredients used are certified organic. **Please note--You can save $50 on all the linked products using gift card code higherliving.

​

Step One:

• 2 Cups Pitted Dates

• 5 scoops MVP Kids Multi-Source Vegan Protein

• 1/2 cup Cacao Powder

• 1 Scoop Original Daily Fiber Blend

• 5 Heaping scoops of Organic Barley Green Juice

• 2 Tbsp. Carrot Juice Plus

​

Place all ingredients in a food processor and blend until it sticks to itself.  (See the video on Healthy Ginger Snaps to see what I mean by "stick to itself." It will be all in one place in the food processor.) Once you are done, place on parchment paper and use a rolling pin to roll it out thin.

​

Step Two:

This recipe for salted date caramel is from the Raw Mama's book Rawspiration.

• 15 Medjool dates (give or take)

• 1/2 cup water

• 3 Tbsp Tropic Oil (Coconut oil)

• 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

• 1/4 tsp Unrefined Sea Salt of your choice

​

Blend in Vitamix/Blender/food processor until smooth. Layer this on top of step one.

​

Step Three:

• 1/2 bag Organic Dark Chocolate Chips (roughly 3/4 of a cup)

• 2 Tbsp Tropic Oil (coconut oil)

• 2 Scoops MVP Kids Multi-Source Vegan Protein

• 3/4 cup Brown Rice puffed cereal

• 1/4 cup chia seeds

​

Melt coconut oil on low heat and and then stir in the chocolate chips and the MVP Kids protein. Once that is mixed, add in the puffed rice cereal and the chia seeds. Stir. Be sure to be vigilant about stirring so chocolate doesn't burn. Once it is ready, put this layer on top of step 2. 

​

Put the whole thing into the refrigerator to set and then cut into bit size pieces. Be warned...it might be a little messy.
