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)

Equipment

  • 12x ⅓ or ½ cup size silicone molds

Method
 

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Mix all chocolate layer ingredients. The mixture will be liquidy, easy to pour on top of the almond layer.
  4. Take the molds out of the freezer and divide the chocolate mixture equally over the 12 molds. Place the molds back in the freezer
  5. After about an hour the cups are stiffened up and ready to eat. Enjoy!
