Delicious homemade chocolate bars made healthier with nuts, dates and coconut oil.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cookbooks… scattered in little piles all over my kitchen. I’m a little addicted to buying them. It might seem odd from someone who blogs recipes and works almost exclusively online but there’s something about turning the crisp pages of a cookbook that will always feel a bit special to me. So when the lovely Dannii from Hungry Healthy Happy<\/a> <\/span>recently brought out a cookbook of the same name I was really excited to get my hands on a copy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I have been following Dannii’s blog for over a year now and I really love the whole ethos behind her recipes. Having lost almost 100lbs over the last few years, you’d be forgiven for thinking that her blog would very much be focused on diets and “diet food”. But rather surprisingly Dannii’s recipes instead concentrate on making small changes to otherwise normal food and maximising fruits and veggies. So regardless of whether you are trying to lose weight or just looking for new and healthy ideas to feed your family, her blog and now her brand new cookbook are a must read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One recipe in particular which stood out to me in the cookbook was these Healthier Chocolate Bars. Packed full of nuts, dates and coconut oil, these little squares of delight make a really delicious and nutritious treat and are a great alternative to chocolate bars loaded with refined sugar. I’m actually eating one right now as I’m trying out this post… I can’t get enough!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dannii has very kindly agreed to let me share her recipe for these chocolate bars with you. I halved her recipe as I wanted to make smaller kid-sized bites rather than the large chocolate bars. Go check out her blog<\/a> and of course her cookbook too (US Cookbook<\/a> <\/span>and UK Cookbook<\/a><\/span>).<\/p>\n\n\n
