Superfood Snack: Chocolate Cherry Goji Bars

Ingredients:
nuts, walnuts, english
nuts, almonds
dates, deglet noor
goji berries, dried
vanilla extract
spices, cinnamon, ground
cherries, sweet, raw
chocolate, dark, 70-85% cacao solids

Directions:
In a food processor, combine the walnuts and the almonds, and process the nuts into the size of small gravel.
Add the dates, goji berries, vanilla extract, and cinnamon powder, and process until the mixture forms clumps and begins to stick together.
Add the cherries and cacao nibs and process briefly to incorporate the ingredients, but leave some small chunks for texture.
Stop the machine and check the consistency: Depending on the natural moisture of the dates, you may need to add a touch of water 1 teaspoon at a time to get the crumbs to stick together when pinched.
If the dough is too wet, blend in a few extra almonds.
Place the dough on a large sheet of plastic wrap on a cutting board.
Press the dough into a compact rectangle, then wrap it tightly in the plastic, compacting it even more.
Use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a 1/2-inch-thick layer.
Unwrap the dough and cut it into bars or bites as desired.
Energy bars will last several weeks unrefrigerated and covered, or keep them in the freezer for long-term storage.
Superfood boost: Add 1/2 teaspoon spirulina powder while blending the ingredients for a mineral-rich green upgrade.
