These do not melt at room temp but are soft...very chewy from the freezer but would be fine in the fridge..
    I thought these would be a great treat for halloween!!!!

    Tootsie-Rawls
    1 cup raw cacao powder
    1/2 cup mesquite powder
    1/2 cup almond butter
    3/4 cup honey or agave (I used a mix of both)
    2 T. fo-ti
    2 heaping T. lucuma powder
    1 T. Vanilla
    pinch sea salt

    process in food processor till well blended...will be very stiff, stir down as needed
    place in bowl and knead in more lucuma (several T.) till no longer sticky.
    roll in logs, wrap in paper
    store in freezer
    This looks so good, can I have one now? :)
    I would love to make some
    thank you

    I finally got around to making these. I am allergic to almonds and I hate cashew butter. Was thinking of using macadamia butter but daughter hates that. So I used cashew/mac butter. She still wasn't too keen on that but I felt it had a more mild flavor. At any rate, the end product tastes very much like Tootsie rolls. Yum!

    ETA. I didn't add any Fo-Ti/
