Ingredients

Base

•  1/2 cup desiccated coconut
• 1 cup almond meal
• 1 cup pitted dates (chopped and soaked in boiling water to soften)

Filling

•  1 & 1/2 cups soaked raw cashews (best soaked over night)
• 1/2 cup desiccated coconut
• 1/4 cup coconut oil
• 1 1/2 tsp Natvia
• 2 tsp high quality 100% matcha green tea powder
• 2 tsp peppermint essence (or less if you don’t like strong mint flavours)
• 1 tbs honey

Chocolate Topping

• 1/2 cup coconut oil
• 1/2 cup cacao
• 1 tbs natural peanut butter
• 1 tbs pure maple syrup
• 2 tbs Natvia (or to your desired sweetness)

Method

• In a food processor, process all of the base ingredients until well combined and add around 1 – 2 tbs of water to form a paste.
• Place base mixture in lined slice tin and press down, then place in fridge to set.
• Place all the filling ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth and creamy. Smooth out the filling on top of the base layer and place back in the fridge.
• In a saucepan, melt the coconut oil and the rest of the chocolate topping ingredients and stir until peanut butter is melted and mixture is smooth.
• Ensure base and filling mixture is cold before adding chocolate layer or the chocolate will melt the filling.
• Once chocolate topping is cooled slightly spread on top of slice and place back in fridge to set.
• Once set (about 1hour) cut into 16 slices
• Store in fridge for about 2 weeks or freezer for about 3 months
