Method

1. Break up the chocolate into a microwavable bowl and microwave for thirty seconds at a time until completely melted, stirring as you go.

2. Pour the melted chocolate evenly between nine cupcake cases and shake the tray so that the chocolate is even in each. Put in the fridge for 10 minutes.

3. While the chocolate’s in the fridge, mix together the oat flour, Vegan Blend, coconut flour, peanut butter and coconut oil until smooth.

4. Sprinkle in the chocolate chips, leaving a few for decoration, and mix through the cookie dough.

5. Once the chocolate bases are solid, you can spread the cookie dough over the top of them.

6. Finally, sprinkle over the remaining chocolate chips and chill for 30 minutes before you tuck in.
