Made this simple, no-bake recipe from Organic Sisters (with a few slight modifications) and they turned out great!
Here's a link to the recipe:

We substituted raw cashews for the almonds and dried figs for the dates, because I like figs better and they're also less sweet. Here's a pic of how ours turned out:

If you don't have a food processor (we don't either!), just grate whatever nuts you use very fine and chop the figs/dates as small as you can get them and mix all the ingredients together by hand...works fine!
Added bonus: they're vegan, so a dessert recipe we didn't have to take the time to veganize and for those of you who aren't vegan but have veg(etari)an family members, this is a simple no-bake recipe the whole family will love!
P.S. Makes many more slices...these are just all that are left, lol!
