4 individual, whole, pitted
Black beans in water
1 can(s), large, drained

40 g
Icing Sugar
30 g
Vanilla Extract
2 teaspoon(s), level

Instructions
1
Place the dates in a small microwave-safe bowl and cover them with water. Microwave on High until the water boils, about 2 minutes. Drain.
2
In the bowl of a food processor, combine the dates, beans, cocoa, sugar, vanilla and salt; process on high until well blended for about 1 minute. Drizzle with the oil and blitz until the mixture is completely smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
3
Line an 20cm square baking pan with plastic wrap. Spread the fudge mixture evenly into a thin layer in the pan. Refrigerate for about 1 hour until firm. Lift the fudge from the pan with the plastic wrap; cut into 6 rows each way to form 36 squares.
