Snickers

Snickers slice

A healthy no dairy, no sugar, no wheat, no gluten delicious treat to make any skeptic want to know more about a raw vegan way of life.

You MUST try this recipe!! Please trust me on this... 😋


Shortbread layer

Ingredients
1/2 cup oat flour 
1/3 agave
1/4 cup pine nuts
1 cup almond flour (ground almonds)



Once everything is combined press the 'nougat' into a cling film tray about 3/4 of a cm thickness. Place in the freezer.




Caramel and penut layer:
1 cup dates (soaked)
Pinch Himalayan salt
Half a scraped vanilla bean pod
2tbs coconut oil (melted)
1/2 cup Peanuts (sliced or chopped thin)

Except for the the peanuts, blend all the above ingredients together adding just a little of the water from the dates until a thick gooey caramel is formed. 
Finely slice the peanut and then stir them into the caramel.


 Caramel is my weakness... And having cut refined sugar sugar from my diet I think I've found the best alternative to gooey caramel sauce!


Spread the caramel layer onto the nougat  and place the whole thing back in the fridge to set.


Chocolate layer
I bought back a load of raw cacoa beans from Bali and used the nutribullet to grind them into a fine power.

Ingredients
1/2 cup coconut oil
1 cacao powder
1/3 carob powder 
4tbs agave
Stevia 

(This makes a little extra so save about 1/3 of this in the fridge for chocolate sauce ice cream topping).

Pour and spread with a spatulas the chocolate sauce on the nougat and caramel.
Sprinkle the chocolate with rough chopped almonds optional) then set back in the freezer.


I loveeeee these so much! The only issue I've found is that if you want to take them out to places or for your friends to try they tend to get a little gooey when they're out the fridge for more than an hour which makes them difficult to transport... but to have in the fridge at home is a dream treat.
