Nut Mixture

2 cups mixed nuts Choose from almonds, walnuts, pecans, or your favorite nuts.
1 cup pitted dates Chopped dates act as a natural sweetener and binder.
0.5 cup rolled oats These add fiber and help to create a hearty base for the bars.
0.25 cup honey or maple syrup This sweetener enhances the flavor and helps hold everything together.
0.5 cup dark chocolate chips Opt for chocolate with at least 70% cocoa for a rich taste.
0.5 teaspoon sea salt A sprinkle of sea salt balances the sweetness.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract This adds a lovely aroma and depth to the bars.

Gather your ingredients: mixed nuts, pitted dates, rolled oats, honey or maple syrup, dark chocolate chips, sea salt, and vanilla extract.
In a food processor, combine the mixed nuts, chopped dates, rolled oats, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Pulse until well combined and sticky.
Melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Press the nut mixture evenly into a prepared baking dish. Pour the melted chocolate over the mixture and sprinkle with sea salt.
