Ingredients
How to Make the Base Layer:
1 1/2 cup almond flour
1/2 cup Vegan Protein Powder, we used Nuzest
3 Tablespoons Coconut Flour
1/4 cup Coconut Sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
3 Tablespoons Coconut Oil, melted and cooled a bit
3/4 cup nut or seed butter of your choice
How to Make the Chocolate Layer:
1/2 cup Dairy-Free Chocolate Chips
2 teaspoons Coconut Oil
Instructions
1.) To make the base layer, add the dry ingredients (almond flour, coconut flour and sugar, salt and cinnamon) to a medium-sized bowl and whisk together to remove any lumps.
2.) Add the coconut oil and nut/seed butter and stir to bring together – this might be easier if you get in there with your hands to bring the dough together.
3.) In a 8″ x8″ pan lined with parchment paper, press the dough evenly into the bottom of the pan. Place in the freezer for about an hour to harden up.
4.) To make the chocolate layer, melt the chocolate and coconut oil in the microwave or double boiler. Stir until all the chips are melted and the mixture is pourable.
5.) Remove the dough from the freezer and spread the chocolate over the dough and place back in the freezer to harden.
6.) Once the chocolate has hardened, you can cut them up and enjoy! These are best kept in a tightly sealed container in the freezer and eaten straight from there.
