Ingredients

• 2 packs pitted dates
• 2 tea bags Laager Tea4Kids Peach & Apricot
• 250ml boiling water
• 2 cups roasted nuts
• 1 cup tropical fruit trail mix
• 1 cup toasted coconut
• 1/4 cup of mini dark chocolate chip morsels (optional)

Method

• Steep the Laager Tea4Kids in boiling water and allow to cool and discard the teabags.
• Soak the dates in the peach & apricot tea until soft, strain all liquid
• Place nuts, dates, coconut and fruit in a food processor and process until your desired consistency.
• If you like more crunchy and chunky, stop the food processor when it looks ground but still chunky or continue to process until the nuts are finely ground
• Line a brownie pan with waxed paper. Place fruit and nut mixture in the pan and use a piece of waxed paper or parchment to press the mixture down and spread it out.
• If adding chocolate, sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the fruit and nut mixture and press them down into the mixture. Use your hand or and a drinking glass to even out the surface.
• Lift the mixture out of the pan using the waxed paper lining. Use a sharp knife to cut into equal pieces. Wrap pieces in parchment or waxed paper and store in an airtight container.
