1/3 cup Peanuts

1/4 cup Cocoa powder or cacao powder

1/4 teaspoons salt

4 tablespoons Agave Nectar or maple syrup

1 tablespoon Water

INSTRUCTIONS

 

Prepare a 6- inch pan with baking paper and set aside.

To prepare base, combine all ingredients in a food processor. Process until you get a mixture that is fine and sticky. If it is to dry, add a touch more Agave Nectar. If too wet, a more shredded coconut. Press mixture firmly into the base of your tin and set aside.

To prepare Peanut Butter Filling, combine all ingredients in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 20 second intervals, stirring after each time. Continue this process until you get a smooth peanut butter mixture.

Pour mixture over base and spread out using a rubber spatula. Chill for 1 hour.

Prepare the chocolate topping by combining all ingredients in a microwave safe bowl and microwave in 20 second intervals, stirring after each time. Continue until you have a shiny and smooth chocolate mixture.

Pour over your set peanut butter filling, and use a rubber spatula to spread out.

Refrigerate for 4-6 hours, and then remove from the fridge and cut into squares.
