Ingredients
- =
- 1 cup maple syrup OR 1 cup corn syrup (if you're poor like me)

- 1/3 cup raw sesame seeds
- =
Directions
In a heavy-bottomed pot, heat the maple syrup and nut butter together, stirring constantly over low heat until well combined. Remove from heat and stir in the cocoa powder until well mixed. Pour into a loaf pan or similar casserole dish and press the sesame seeds into the top with your hands or a rubber spatula. Let set for at least 15 minutes in your fridge, then cut into small squares, and eat!.
