Twix
For the almond shortbread base...
1 1/2 cups packed fine blanched almond flour
3 TBS coconut oil
2 TBS maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dash of himalayan or celtic salt
For the caramel peanut butter layer...
2/3 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup coconut oil
1/3 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dash of himalayan or celtic salt
For the chocolate layer...
1 tablespoon coconut oil
3/4 cup sugar free chocolate chips (I use Bake Believe dairy free)
Servings: 16 / Serving Size: 1 bar
Instructions...
First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Then line an 8x8 inch square pan with parchment paper. Make sure it’s 8x8; otherwise, it may be too big. (I put it straight into my pan & put a little coconut oil at the bottom and up the sides)
Next, you make your shortbread base by mixing the almond flour with coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt in a bowl. (I use my food processor to mix it all together… it works great) Mix it all together using a fork until it forms a nice crumb texture. Press this into an 8×8 inch square pan and bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.
Towards the final few minutes, you want to start making the peanut butter caramel layer. Add the peanut butter, maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt to a medium pot and place over medium-low heat for approximately 2 minutes. Make sure you frequently stir until the caramel starts to ever so slightly bubble. Once it’s ready, pour over your slightly cooled almond shortbread crust.
Afterward, place the now shortbread topped with the caramel layer in the fridge for roughly 30 to 60 minutes (you want the peanut butter layer to be completely hardened).
Once the caramel topping is nearly hardened it is time to move on to making the sugar-free chocolate topping layer. You add the sugar-free chocolate chips and coconut oil to a glass bowl or a double broiler. Next, you get a saucepan or pot and fill it with a small layer of water. Add the glass bowl to the saucepan or pot on top of the water and turn the heat on to medium-high. You stir the chocolate frequently until it is perfectly melted!
Pour over the caramel layer and tilt your dish side-to-side to evenly distribute the melted sugar-free chocolate. Place in fridge for at least 20 minutes until chocolate is completely hardened and bars are cooled.
Now, it’s the final step! Remove bars from the pan and cut the entire pan of bars in half, then cut each half into 8! This will give you roughly 16 healthy, Twix bars!!
Lastly, enjoy your Twix bars!
Chocolate Chip Protein Cookie Bites
1 cup Raw Cashews
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/4 teaspoon Himalayan or Celtic Salt
1 tsp vanilla
4 Medjool Dates pitted (I used 8 Barhi Dates)
2 tablespoons Maple Syrup
2 tablespoons Plant based Vanilla Protein Powder or Lucuma Powder
1/4 cup dark chocolate chopped (I used Bake Believe Dark Chocolate stevia sweetened chocolate chips)
Instructions...
Combine Cashews, Vanilla, Oats and Sea Salt in a food processor. Pulse together until a coarse meal forms. Add Dates and Maple Syrup to your Cashew mixture. Pulse again until the mixture comes together in a ball, similar in texture to cookie dough. If it is too try, add a few DROPS of water and pulse again. Different Protein Powders have different absorbency rate. Remove the dough from the food processor and place it in a small bowl. Fold chocolate in. Using a teaspoon, portion out your cookie dough into twelve even portions. Roll each portion into a ball. Place your rolled bites in a glass food container. You can eat them right away, or store them in the refrigerator or freezer to chill, for a chewier texture.
Chia Seed Pudding
Blend...
1 can organic coconut milk (I use Thai Kitchen) or milk of choice
2 cups fruit (I use frozen mixed berries from Costco)
Optional to up protein....1 scoop of Sunwarrior Berry Warrior Blend Protein Powder for berries or for tropical fruits add a scoop of Sunwarrior Clean Greens Vanilla Protein Powder or Sunwarrior Vanilla Warrior Blend Protein Powder
After blending for 30-60 seconds, pour in a glass storage bowl and stir in 1/4 cup chia seeds. Put in fridge for 5-6 hours before eating.
Optional instead of plain coconut milk is to use coconut milk yogurt or your other unsweetened favorite yogurt. To make coconut yogurt, mix coconut milk with two 30 billion probiotic capsules or one 50 billion probiotic capsule (without pre-biotics) in a quart jar, put lid on and put in a draft free place. I put mine in a pantry. Leave for 24 hours and then put in the fridge. This is also a really good breakfast recipe. (When I make yogurt, I make two cans at a time, which makes a full quart...to make a quart, I use two 50 Billion Probiotics, or three 30 billion)
I use RenewLife Ultimate Flora Extra Care 30 Billion or NOW probiotic-10 50 billion.
No Bake Berry High Protein Cheesecake
2 Cups Coconut Milk Yogurt (see recipe above) or your favorite no sugar yogurt
