RAW HEALTHY CARAMEL SLICE

Dear body I promise to nourish & respect you with the healthy foods you deserver, Food is more than just food, Food supports your body, your organs, your heart & your soul.

Dark chocolate creates an indulgent, comforting feeling that lifts our spirit when we are down & enhances our level of happiness when things are going well. Eating it causes the production of endorphins, chemicals in the brain that evoke feelings of comfort & pleasure. 

Be mindful of the way certain foods make you feel. Listen to your body. For me eating healthy has a huge connection on my mental health & how I feel each day.

Here is a recipe to one of my favourite raw treats. I promise it is absolutely divine.

 RAW CARAMEL SLICE 

✅INGREDIENTS BASE:

2 cups walnuts 

14 medjool dates pitted pitted

1/3 cups cocoa powder

1 tsp vanilla extract 

Pinch of salt

(Optional) Chaga mushroom extract powder sachet (I use @vimergy)

✅MIDDLE

15 medjool dates pitted

2 tbsp natural peanut butter (I like to use crunchy for a little extra texture).

1 tbsp coconut oil melted 

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 cup rice malt syrup 

1/4 cup boiling water

✅TOPPING

2 blocks dark chocolate ( I use 70% @lindt )

Pinch of salt

HOW TO:

✅Place all the ingredients for the base in a food processor on high speed for approximately 1 minute until the mixture is a sticky crumble. Press into your 20x20cm tray.

✅Place all the ingredients for the middle layer in the food processor and process till smooth. Poor the mixture over your base and smooth with a spoon. Place your slice in the freezer for 1hour.

✅Melt chocolate over the stove top and poor a thin layer over your slice. Sprinkle a pinch of salt over your slice and pop into the freezer till it sets.

I promise you will make this more than once .

✅Use a hot knife to cut. Store in an air tight container in the freezer.
