Larabar like "Healthy Chocolate bars"

I love the 'simplicity' of the larabars.No long list of artificial ingredients....just a few ingredients making a nutritious and delicious snack.They are still high in calories.....but nutrition packed calories..not the 'empty' kinds.
The base is almost 'Mejdool dates' every time....and then you can flavor them by adding different ingredients.The result is a 'chewy' delicious bar! There are a zillion varieties like...Cashew cookie, banana bread etc etc

I had read this recipe to make homemade larabars on:

3/4 cup Almonds
1/3 Cup unsweetened cocoa powder

Method:
Just Pulse everything together in a mixer till it starts to come together....press into bars...cut...DONE!
I store mine in the refrigerator.
