Sugar-free Chocolate Chips Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1-2 cups dates, any variety
• 2 tbsp Fair Trade cocoa powder (unsweetened)

Equipment:

• Cuisinart food processor or similar (I found mine used on Craigslist for half the new retail cost)

Directions:

1. Remove pits from dates
2. Cut dates in half or quarters - optional and depends on your food processor
3. Put dates and cocoa powder in food processor and pulse until dates form cocoa-coated chips

Note - do not over process or blend. Hitting pulse 5-10 times should create little chips the size of a normal chocolate chip.Can be used as chocolate chips in any cookie recipe and can also be used as the chocolate filling for sandwich style cookies. Both examples picture.
