  • 2 tsp coconut sugar
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted

Nut butter layer

  • 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp almond flour

  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extra

Instructions

  1. Combine the ingredients for the chocolate layer and mix well. Set aside.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the ingredients for the nut butter layer, stirring well to ensure the ingredients are fully incorporated.
  3. Add the chocolate layer mixture to the bowl with the nut butter mixture and use a rubber spatula to gently fold the two layers together. You don’t want to over mix.

  5. Serve chilled, or transfer to the freezer to store for 3-4 months.
