Ingredients

  • CHOCOLATE BASE:
  • 5 T. coconut oil, melted
  • 4 T. cocoa powder
  • 2 t. maple syrup
  • ⅛ t. salt
  • NOUGAT LAYER:
  • 4 T. coconut oil, melted
  • 2 T. milk of your choice
  • 3 T. maple syrup
  • ½ t. vanilla
  • ½ c. + 2 T. oats, ground into flour (use almond flour if grain-free)
  • ⅛ t. sea salt
  • CARAMEL:
  • 8 dates, Medjool
  • 2 T. peanut butter (I used salted so I didn’t add any extra salt)
  • 1 t. vanilla
  • 2 t. water
  • ¼ c. peanuts

Instructions

  1. Mix together the ingredients for the chocolate base until well combined.
  2. Pour the mix into a small baking dish
  3. Put the dish into the freezer until hard (about 10-15 minutes).
  4. Mix together the ingredients for the nougat layer until well combined.
  5. Pour the nougat layer onto the hardened chocolate base.
  6. Set in the freezer until the nougat layer is solid (1-2 hours).
  7. Process the ingredients for the caramel layer until well combined.
  8. Spread the caramel mix atop the hardened nougat layer (wet and use your hands for this, as it is very thick.)
  9. Press the peanuts into the caramel, scattering them across the entire layer.
  10. Freeze again until set (about an hour).
  11. Cut into 12 equal bars and enjoy!
