    Where do I start with this one? I was beyond pleased with how these Mango Nice Cream Bars turned out!  I was in the mood for a delicious treat, but didn't want any added sugar. And while I love dates, sometimes I get a little burnt out on their use in healthy desserts; so I turned to golden raisins for a little experimentation.  The result? DIVINE.

    Top Tips

    • I greatly prefer the flavor of golden raisins in this recipe but regular raisins or any small dried fruit of your choice will work well. I recommend purchasing unsweetened for best results.
    • Instead of purchasing almond flour, you can also make your own almond meal by placing almonds in a food processor or blender and blending until a powder forms.
    • These bars will store well in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
