Preheat your oven to 365F. Now add your dates to the food processor and begin to pulse until you get a clumpy paste. Then add your coconut oil and cocoa powder to the food processor and puree until well mixed, and it has become smoother. Then add the rest of the ingredients and puree until smooth. Grease an 8x8 inch glass baking dish with coconut oil.  Then pour your brownie mix and smooth it out in the dish.  Now make the top layer by adding your shredded coconut, coconut oil and coconut cream concentrate and honey to a glass bowl and microwave for 5-10 seconds at a time to melt and mix together with a spoon.  After the mix is incorporated, add your foamy egg whites and mix well.  Pour topping over your brownie batter and smooth it out until covering the entire surface of the brownie layer. bake at 365F for 20-25 min and the top is getting a little golden.  They cut better when cooled a bit. Enjoy!!
