Instructions

In a food processor fitted with a steel blade, pulse the walnuts until coarsely chopped. Transfer to a bowl.
Add the dates and dried cherries to the food processor and blend until reduced to a coarse paste.
Add the walnuts, cocoa powder, cocoa nibs and shredded coconut. Pulse until combined.
Transfer mixture onto a piece of plastic wrap and form into a log. Using the wrap, flatten and shape the log into an 8×3 inch rectangle (20cm x 7cm). Sprinkle the top of the log with shredded coconut and pat it into the log so it sticks. Wrap and freeze 10-15 minutes before cutting into bars.
Store airtight in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
