Instructions
- Cover the cashews in 3/4 cup of boiling water for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
- Soak the dates in 50ml boiling water for 10 minutes, covered with foil.
- Place peppermint essence, maple syrup and cashews (including water) in food processor.
- Blitz on high for 1 minute until a smooth paste forms, then pour mix into a bowl and place in the fridge.
- Place dates including water into food processor and blitz on high until paste forms. Add oats, cacao and coconut oil and blitz on medium speed for 20 seconds until combined.
- Firmly press down 1-2 tsp of mix in the base of 10 silicone cups. Pop each base out and set aside to use later.
- Firmly press remaining oat mix into the 10 cups to create the base, and then spoon the cashew mix on top.
- Place in freezer for 30 minutes to firm up, before placing the tops on. Slightly press down on each top to flatten to fit nicely on top of the cashew centre.
- Once top layer is placed on top, return to the freezer for 1-2 hours until firm.
- Remove from moulds and store in freezer. Allow to stand to soften for 5-10 min before consuming.
