Makes 8-12
Ingredients
Base
50g walnuts- you could use any
nuts in the base
50g almonds
50g melted butter
1 tsp honey
1 tbsp cacao powder
Topping
125g full fat cream cheese
2 tbsp cacao powder
1 tbsp honey
1 tsp vanlla extract
1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
Method
For the base:
In a food processor blitz nuts
until it looks like crumbs, then add cacao, honey and butter, pulse until
combined. On a tray lined with baking paper put balls of the mix on and flatten
with your fingers to form a flat circle. You should get 8-12 depending on how
big you want them. Put in the fridge to set.
While the base is setting blitz
up your cream cheese, cacao, vanilla, cacao and coconut oil until smooth. Take
out your base and spoon the topping on, put back in the fridge. You can keep in
the freezer for a frozen treat too.
Thank you! They're in the fridge setting now (well, the ones that survived the taste testing process are).
ReplyDeleteI put them into patty pans to try and keep the sizes even and I replaced the honey with stevia as I don't have any honey in the cupboard. But it tastes and smells amazing.
Can't wait til dessert! :)
great idea, let me know how they go!
ReplyDeleteThe stevia worked a treat! And the patty pans were perfect for portions control (if you can stop at one). They were an all round hit and I'll be making them many times in future I'm sure. Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteIve made them twice so far & they turned out fantastic! The first time I used macadamia nuts & almonds for the base & the second time I used gluten free arrowroot biscuits & macadamia nuts.
