4. While the crust is chilling, heat a saucepan over medium-low heat and add the coconut cream, Soma Cacao, and coconut oil. Whisk frequently until melted and smooth. Allow to cool slightly.
5. Remove the pits from the dates and tear into pieces. Add them to the food processor, along with the vanilla, sea salt, and and the melted chocolate mixture. Blend until everything is combined and completely smooth and silky, scraping down the sides as needed.
