Method

1. Blitz the base Add all your base ingredients to a high-speed blender or food processor and blitz until combined. Too dry? Add a splash of water, 1 tsp at a time. Too wet? Add a few extra oats, 1 tsp at a time.

2. Press Pour the base into a lined baking dish (a standard bread pan works a treat) and press it out evenly with the back of a spoon. Pop it in the freezer to chill while you make the filling.

3. Blend the filling Add all your filling ingredients to a high-speed blender and blend until smooth and creamy. Have a taste and add a little more peppermint if you like it extra fresh.

4. Layer Pour the filling over the chilled base, smooth it out evenly, and set in the freezer for around 1 hour, or until firm.

5. Melt the chocolate In a small container, melt your dark chocolate with the coconut oil in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth and glossy.

6. Top and set Pour the melted chocolate over the set filling, spread evenly, and return to the freezer for 30 to 60 minutes before slicing.

FAQs about Chocolate Mint Protein Slice

  • Soak them overnight, or cover with boiling water for 30 to 60 minutes before using. Be sure to use raw cashews for the smoothest, creamiest filling.

  • Refrigerate your can of coconut cream beforehand so you can scoop out the thick, set portion at the top, that's what gives the filling its luscious texture.

  • Absolutely. It's purely there for that pretty green colour and doesn't change the flavour, so feel free to skip it.

  • Cacao Mint Cookies & Cream brings the signature choc-mint magic, but Choc Peanut Butter or Cacao Hazelnut would work for a different twist.

  • You can slightly reduce the maple syrup in the base or filling to suit your taste.
