RECIPE

Chocolate mixture

500g 70% dark chocolate (I used Firetree dark chocolate, “Cappucino Create”)
1 tsp Coconut oil
2 tbsp Agave syrup

Filling

½ Cup roasted salted peanuts
⅓ Cup dried cherries
⅓ Cup chopped dates (or raisins)
1 Cup puffed rice cereal
⅓ Cup macadamia nuts, roughly chopped into large chunks

Lightly grease a 9×9 inch square baking pan. In a saucepan over low heat, melt the dark chocolate, coconut oil & agave syrup. When the mixture is smooth, remove from heat. Scoop out ½ cup of the chocolate mixture & set aside. Allow to cool slightly. Stir all the filling ingredients into the chocolate mixture in the pot. Transfer the mixture into the prepared pan. Spread with the back of a spoon to flatten evenly. Pour the reserved ½ cup of melted chocolate over & smooth the top. Freeze for one hour or refrigerate for a few hours (or overnight) until fully set & hardened. Cut 4×4 into 16 bars, or 4×6 into 24 smaller pieces. Store in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer. Enjoy! xx
