Healthier Penguin Chocolate Biscuits
Ingredients
- 60ย gramsย dark chocolateย (70% cocoa)
- 1/2ย tbspย tahini (6g)
- 1/2ย tbspย chilled coconut cream solidsย (8g)
- 1 tsp of coconut cream liquid from the tin (5ml)
- 1ย tspย maple syrup (5ml)
- 8ย Lotus Biscoff biscuit pairsย (available from major supermarkets)
Method
- Chill coconut cream by either putting in the freezer for 20 minutes, or in the fridge for 8 hours.
- Melt 20g of the dark chocolate in a microwave safe bowl, add the tahini and mix well.
- Once slightly cooled to room temperature, add the chilled coconut cream solids. It will look like the chocolate has split at first, however add the maple syrup and coconut cream liquid (from the tin), and stir well to smooth the mixture back out. The mixture should become quite thick like chocolate icing.
- To each Biscoff biscuit half, add 1 teaspoon of the chocolate mixture, and top with the other half of the pair. Chill for approximately 1 hour, or until the chocolate centre is completely firm.
- Melt remainder of dark chocolate, and dip the biscuits in to coat entirely. Return to the fridge until chocolate is set, or until you are ready to serve.
Recipe makes 8 biscuits at 99 calories each
