Mazurek is a traditional easter cake originating from Poland. If you like nuts and chocolate, you will love this mazurek.

 
Ingredients:

For the base:
250g almonds
150g raisins
4 dates (stones removed)

For the caramel:
32 dates (stones removed)
6 figs
4 tablespoons coconut oil
one vanilla pod
4 tablespoons water

For the toping:
80g salted peanuts, chopped
300g dark (vegan) chocolate

For decoration:
Mix nuts and morels 

Method:

1. To make the base, process the almonds in a food processor for about 1 minute until they reach a fine texture. Set the almonds aside in a bowl. Process the raisins and dates in a food processor until they a smooth paste, add the almonds and process the entire mixture. Place the mixture between two pieces of greaseproof paper and, using a rolling pin, roll it out until you have a square that is 1 cm thick.

2. To make the caramel, blend the dates, figs, coconut oil and water in a blender until it becomes a uniform caramel-like mass. It shouldn`t runny, but should hang easily on a spoon. Add a few additional dates or put it in the fridge if it is too runny- just be aware that it solidifies quickly.

3. Smooth the caramel over the base.

4. Melt the chocolate in a bain-marine and pour it over the caramel.

5. Decorate with nuts and dried fruits.

6. Let the chocolate cool, then cut the mixture into 24 pieces and place them in the fridge.
