I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

No Bake Tahini Date Stars

An all natural, cool and easy treat. Yes, sometimes we eat healthy snacks!
Ingredients:
1/3 cup melted organic coconut oil
1/2 cup smooth tahini
1 tbsp pure maple syrup
1 cup chopped dates, packed
pink himalayan salt (optional)
sesame seeds (optional)

Soak the chopped dates in enough hot water to cover for 30 minutes, then drain well and press the extra water out.
Mix the tahini, coconut oil and maple syrup together and pour into forms. The original recipe called for 9 silicone muffin liners but I have 4 - 4" stars that worked. Use whatever you have...even empty yogurt cups might work! Put the forms on a tray and freeze about 10 minutes or until set.
In a food processor process the dates until smooth. You could add a little salt. Spread over the hardened tahini. You could leave them as is or sprinkle a little pink himalayan salt and sesame seeds on top.
 Return to the freezer for 20-30 minutes.

Then pop out of the mold and enjoy!


Keep frozen until ready to serve
