This recipe is also great to make with the kids, they will love getting messy with the green icing!
Makes approx 16 squares
Ingredients for the tiffin:
- 1 cup dried fruit (I used chopped dates and raisins)
- 1 cup chopped nuts
- 1 cup buckwheat
- 1/2 cup melted dark chocolate couverture
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 2 tbs coconut or agave syrup
For the icing:
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 2 tsp coconut or agave syrup
- 2 tbs cashew paste
- 1-2 tsp wheatgrass (to taste)
- 1/4 tsp vanilla powder
- sprinkling of chia seeds
Method:
Add the dried fruit, chopped nuts and puffed rice to a medium bowl and toss to mix.
Melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil and mix with the syrup to blend. Pour the mixture over the dry ingredients and stir to coat evenly.
Press the mixture very firmly into a lined 8″ square pan.
For the icing, melt the coconut oil and mash the cashew paste into it with the remaining ingredients to achieve a thick soft and smooth paste. Spread this over the top of the tiffin evenly and sprinkle with chia if desired.
Chill until firm before slicing to serve.
