Raw chocolate coated energy bar

Major discovery, I can choc dip things... Ive figured out how to make raw chocolate and how to chocolate dip my energy bars. It was really easy, pretty much melting at a very low heat some super awesome ingredients and then dipping in my already prepared energy bars. They dried super quickly and were really delicious.
--
raw cacao butter
raw cacao powder (raw chocolate)
agave
salt
dried sour cherries

the energy bars had a LOT of ingredients and whilst they were pretty good they weren't totally amazing, until I came up with the genius idea of choc-dipping them, it's amazing how even a really thin layer of chocolate can change your life. It really complemented the subtle lemon tahini flavour of the bars.


here is a rough inventory of ingredients
--
sunflower seed sprouts and buckwheat sprouts (this is the bulk of the recipe, 1 cup of each)
chia seeds (made into a concentrated gel by adding a little water),
brazil nuts, sultanas, raisens, sour cherries
sesame seeds, coconut oil, salt
slippery elm powder
lemon juice and rind, tahini
dry buckwheat and sunflower seeds for texture and to add dryness and form to the bars.
- After mixing all the ingredients together, press down into a flat container and freeze. When frozen dismantle the slice from the container by popping it out and slicing into bars or squares. Alternately you can form into shapes by hand and then freeze.
