Method

What to do

Soak the dates in the hot espresso for at least 5 minutes to soften.
Drain and rinse the soaked cashews and transfer to a deep jug (for less mess when you blend everything together with a stick blender).
Add the dates, espresso and all remaining ingredients to the jug, and blend until smooth. Transfer to small glass jars and enjoy
