No- Bake Mini Twix
At less than 150kcal per mini bar, these homemade twix are a great snack to have on hand in the fridge or freezer. They only need 6 ingredients to make, and because the recipe makes 24, you can freeze a big batch for easy snacking!
Ingredients
Base ingredients:
- 2 cup oats (one blended into flour) (160g)
- 3 tbsp melted coconut oil
- ¼ cup smooth almond or peanut butter (60g)
- 3 tbsp maple syrup
- ½ tsp sea salt optional
Caramel ingredients:
- 1 cup medjool dates (about 12 large dates)
- ¼ cup smooth almond or peanut butter (60g)
Topping ingredients:
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips (150g) (70% cocoa solids)
Instructions
- Blend 1 cup of oats into a flour and mix with the other base ingredients. Divide into 24 and press down firmly into a mini muffin pan (or cases). Freeze whilst you make the caramel.
- To make the caramel, blend the pitted dates and nut butter in a food processor. As you blend, add 1 tbsp of water to help the caramel come together. You may need one more tbsp, if your dates are harder. Once fully combined into a soft caramel, spread on top of the base. Freeze for about 30 minutes.
- Finally, melt the chocolate in a bowl over a pan of hot water. Pour a spoonful onto the caramel and refrigerate until set.
Notes
- These cups store really well in the fridge. They’ll last for at least 10 days.
- They can also be kept in the freezer for up to three months.
- You can blend both cups of oats to flour, if you prefer a smoother base.
- I use a very natural, unsweetened nut butter to make these.
