Could you blend in hazelnuts, for instance, to create a coffee syrup? Numm. That could be my answer. Advice?

@okdragonfly @okdragonfly Yes, absolutely, that would work nicely. You can even get a few drops of coffee extract in there from medicine flower (dot) com, which is raw and caffeine-free.

I don't like dates at all, but needed a sweetener for a chocolate mousse. Thank you for the recipe, it worked great as an alternative for agave syrup.
