Instructions

1CRUST

2Blend the dates with coconut oil and salt in a food processor until smooth.

3Add the nuts and grind by pressing the pulse button. You want the nuts remain little bit chunky.

4Have your silicon pan ready on a tray or cutting board. That way will be easier moving it to a freezer.

5Transfer the crust mixture into a bowl and scoop 2tbsp by using mini-ice cream scoop. Place each portion in the center of the muffin form.

6When ready, press each one down with your fingers to make it flat. I suggest to wearing surgical or plastic gloves, which helps, making the surface smooth.

7Place into a freezer for 2 hours. Freeze for 2 hours.

8FILLING

9Transfer each filling into a separate bowl.

10By using tablespoons, apply to each crust about 2 to 3 tbsp of vanilla mixture and fill the rest with mocha mixture.

11When ready, tap the pans lightly to make them settle. Take chopstick and make swirls from vanilla to mocha. You may tap them again.

12Place them into a freezer for 6 to 8 hours and refrigerate the leftover cream in a sealed container.

13When ready, remove from the silicon pen on a surface lined with parchment paper and start decorating.

14Fill the piping bag with both flavors and test making sure both colors coming out evenly.

15Decorate your cakes and place into a freezer for an hour. Take it out for ½ hour before serving.
