Have you tried macadamia butter? It's the perfect nut butter for making delicious, lush raw treats. These choc chip treats are great in warmer weather, set in the fridge and they're ready to enjoy. I used a chocolate protein powder but if you prefer you can replace this with extra oats and cocoa powder.
RECIPE:
Makes 8 serves
Base layer:
40g choc protein (optional, see notes)
75g oats
75g almonds / almond meal
40g coconut oil
50g maple syrup (I used sugar free)
40g macadamia butter
15g soy milk
Top layer:
80g macadamia butter
50g choc baking chips
1 Combine base ingredients in a blender. Mix until smooth and sticks together. Transfer to a container lined with baking paper and press it down with the back of a spoon. I used a container measuring 17cm x 10cm.
2️Combine macadamia butter with chocolate baking chips. Mix together. Spread over the base layer.
3️Set in the freezer for 2 hours or in the fridge overnight. Remove from container and slice into bars.
Store in a container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
If you prefer not to use protein powder, replace with an extra 40g of oats and 1 tsp cocoa powder.
