Equipment

  • 12x ⅓ or ½ cup size silicone molds

Ingredients
  

  • ALMOND LAYER INGREDIENTS:
  • 120 gr almond meal (= 4.25 oz. or a bit less than 1 cup)
  • 30 gr oat flour (= 1 oz. or 1/5 cup)
  • 2 tbsp almond butter (or other nut butter of choice)
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil (melted if not already)
  • 1½ tbsp agave syrup
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp fine grain sea salt
  • CHOCOLATE LAYER INGREDIENTS
  • 9 tbsp coconut oil (or a bit more than ½ cup)
  • 9 tbsp agave syrup (or a bit more than ½ cup)
  • 6 tbsp cacao powder (unsweetened, more than 80% preferably)
  • ½ tsp fine grain sea salt
  • 1 pinch coarse sea salt (optional: to sprinkle on top)

Instructions
 

  • If you haven't yet and you are making your own almond meal and oat flour, make them in a food processor first. Skip this step if you use store bought almond meal and oat flour.
  • Mix all almond layer ingredients. Divide over the molds and press down firmly. Place in the freezer until chocolate mixture is ready to be poured on.
  • Mix all chocolate layer ingredients. The mixture will be liquidy, easy to pour on top of the almond layer.
  • Take the molds out of the freezer and divide the chocolate mixture equally over the 12 molds. Place the molds back in the freezer
  • After about an hour the cups are stiffened up and ready to eat. Enjoy!
