Caramel Sauce
- Two Tablespoons of Coconut Oil
- Four/Five Tablespoons of Raw Cacao Powder (Depending on the thickness you like your chocolate)
- 2 Tablespoons of Maple Syrup
- Pinch of Salt
- Two Tablespoons of Coconut Oil
- Four/Five Tablespoons of Raw Cacao Powder
- 2 Tablespoons of Maple Syrup
- Pinch of Salt
- Around 20 Dates
- 1 Tablespoon of Coconut Oil (Melted)
- 1/2 Cup of Almond Milk
- 1/2 Teaspoon of Vanilla Essence
- Pinch of Salt
- 12 Hazelnuts
Method
- STEP 1Put the coconut oil into a saucepan, and leave to melt. Then add the cacao powder and maple syrup and mix. It should bubble then start to resemble chocolate. Leave to cool so that it thickens more. Pour a small amount of the mixture into cupcake cases, and pop into the fridge/freezer to set.
- STEP 2Firstly boil some water and pour over the dates in a bowl. This is so they soften which makes them blend easier. The longer you leave them, the smoother your sauce will be.
- STEP 3In a food processor, pour in the dates and blend until they are in small pieces. Then add the coconut oil and slowly a bit of almond milk at a time, you will start to see the mixture becoming more and more like a sauce. (You can add less/more milk depending on how thick/thin you want your sauce) Put a layer of the caramel on top of the chocolate and pop a hazelnut in too. Then put back into the freezer.
- STEP 4While these two layers are setting - repeat the first chocolate method again, to create a top layer. Pour this on top of the other two layers and put them back in the fridge/freezer. Once everything is set, you can take the cups out of the cupcakes cases and display how you would like.
- STEP 5Keep in the fridge or freezer to eat whenever!
