80 calorie mint slice bites

If you love mint slice biscuits, here is a healthy version that you can enjoy anytime.

The sweetness of the coconut means that you only need a small amount of maple syrup to complete the filling of these chocolate treats.

Perfect with a cup of herbal tea, it’s best to hide these from the kids as they will devour them.

Instructions

1. Blitz coconut, almond meal, coconut oil, mint essence, maple syrup and water until well combined and creamy in texture.
2. This will take a few minutes of blitzing then stopping to scrape down the sides and blitzing again.
3. Divide into 12 pieces. Roll into balls, flatten slightly and place on a tray lined with baking paper and set aside.
4. Melt chocolate using your preferred method.
5. Place 3/4 teaspoon of melted chocolate into a chocolate mould or patty case.
6. Tilt moulds/cases so chocolate coats the base and up the sides. You may need to repeat this step a few times so that the chocolate, when set, creates a wall. 

7. Pop in fridge or freezer to set.
8. Once set, place a mint ball into each case then press down to fill the space.
9. Top with remaining chocolate and pop back in the fridge or freezer to set.
