Line a loaf pan with parchment paper for easy release.
In a small food processor, add the peanut butter, cacao powder, maple syrup, dates, and vanilla.
Melt your coconut oil either on the stovetop or microwave. It needs to be hot for this recipe.
Start blending, and pour your hot melted coconut oil in as the blades run.
Blend the mixture until smooth.
Transfer to your prepared loaf pan and freeze for about 30 minutes, or until fully set but not frozen.
Lightly sprinkle with coarse sea salt if desired.
Slice into small squares and serve.
Enjoy!
