- 12 juicy medjool dates soak in water for 15 minutes if they are hard

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Make your flax eggs by mixing flax and water. Let sit refrigerated for 10-30 minutes.
- Make your cake. Mix together dry ingredients and set aside. Mix together all wet ingredients including your flax eggs. Pour in dry ingredients and mix.
- Pour batter into a lined 8x8 baking dish. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a fork comes out clean.
- Now make your icing. Combine all frosting ingredients in a processor or blender. Blend on high until smooth, scraping down the edges occasionally.
- After cake has cooled, spread icing on top. Dust with sea salt. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to let the icing set. Cut into squares and enjoy.
Notes
Flax eggs are a vegan substitute for eggs. I have not tested this recipe with eggs but I think it would work.
