• 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
• 1/4 cup cocoa or cacao powder
• 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

• 1/4 cup coconut oil
• 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Chocolate Topping

• 6 oz chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil

Instructions

• Line a 4 x 6 inch container with baking paper or cling film.

  Process the base ingredients in a food processor until well combined.

  Press the mixture into the prepared container and set aside in the freezer or fridge.

Caramel Filling

• In a small pot place peanut butter, coconut oil, honey and vanilla extract and gently heat until melted.  Stir until smooth.

  Pour over the base and return to the freezer.

Chocolate Topping

• Melt the chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave in 30 second bursts stirring between each burst or melt using a double boiler. Stir until well combined then allow to cool slightly.

  Pour over the middle layer, then chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour to set.

  Once firm, cut into pieces with a sharp knife. You can turn the slice on its side to cut it if the middle layer is getting squashed down.
