Method
Base
- Place your base ingredients into your Vitamix container and secure the lid.
- Pulse your machine on and off 5 times on HIGH speed for about 2 seconds each time.
- Leave your machine on HIGH speed and blend until you have formed a dough to mould into your base. Use your tamper effectively as this is a thick mixture.
- Place in a slice tray and freeze for 10 minutes in the freezer.
Caramel
- As your base is freezing, place all caramel ingredients into your Vitamix container, except for the Brazil nuts and secure the lid.
- Turn your machine on to variable speed 1, immediately turn up to speed 10 and then quickly override the speed to HIGH.
- Blend using your tamper effectively and stop when you have reached a nice smooth consistency.
- Pour the caramel layer over your base and sprinkle on top some brazil nuts or a nut of your choice.
- Place back in the freezer to set.
Chocolate
- Melt you cacao butter and mix well with the cacao powder, maple syrup and salt.
- Pour over the top of your base and caramel and set in the freezer for 1 hour.
- Eat. Eat it all.
Notes
- If there happens to be any left add them to an airtight container and store in the freezer.
- Make sure to always check that the nuts that you are buying are gluten free.
