It's been a while since I've had a guest recipe on the blog so it had to be a special one! I love this fantastic recipe from Hognuts ambassador Vian of Vees Fitness Foods for her indulgent Double Chocolate Cheesecake Bars.
Prep: 1 hr
Cook: 1 hr
Yields: 8 bars
Ingredients
For the base layer
100g Jumbo oats
100g Barley flakes
50g Pecans
50g Peanuts
50g Crushed digestives
200g Hognuts Peanut Brittle Butter
50g Coconut oil
For the white chocolate layer
40g Cocoa butter
10g Coconut oil
10g Truvia
For the Dark chocolate layer
40g Cacao powder
50g Coconut oil
10g Truvia
Directions
1Make the base layer first; crush the pecans, digestives, peanuts and mix with the oats and barley flakes.
2Gently warm together the Hognuts Peanut Brittle Butter and coconut oil in the microwave, stir every 10 seconds (it will only need about 20 seconds).
3Mix the wet and dry ingredients, press down hard into a load tin lined with baking paper then set in the freezer for 20-30 minutes.
4White chocolate layer next; Melt together the cocoa butter, coconut oil and truvia. Add more truvia to taste depending on how sweet you like it.
5Remove the base layer from the freezer then pour over the white chocolate layer, it will set almost straight away- pop it back in the freezer for a further 20 minutes.
6Finally, melt together the coconut oil for the dark chocolate layer. Add the cacao powder then truvia to taste.
7Pour over the white chocolate layer then allow to set in the fridge for 1-2 hours.
Tastes better than Ben and Jerry’s ice cream 🙂 I like how peanut butter goes well with everything. I add it to Thai curry and it always creates unique flavour dishes. Thanks for sharing this recipe, I will mention it on japana.uk if that’s ok.
