I am soooooooo glad that Juliet came into your lives- she’s brought so much happiness. Now, if only she could bring some sleep, too! xxxx
Thank YOU. She is the sweetest little thing, I feel so blessed. She is actually an amazing sleeper so far! This week she has been sleeping longer than the big kids! I can’t believe it! Gav says I am not allowed to tell people as he is worried I will jinx us! But yes, she has bought us all much love and joy. xxx
Hi Bianca, did you use LSA or almond meal? Different options in method and ingredients 😉
I made it with almond meal….. It was amazing! So delicious, we all devoured it! Will be a regular here 🙂
That is great to hear Talia!! Thank YOU so much! I am glad you enjoyed it! I hope you find many more recipes that you like. x
Sorry! Almond meal. xx
Delicious!!! thanks for another great recipe 🙂
Thank YOU! I really appreciate the feedback and I am glad you enjoyed it. x
You posted this the day my beautiful baby boy was born so I figured I had to give it a go (plus I’m a sucker for anything choc mint). It did not disappoint, truly delicious! Definitely one of my favourites. So I say thank you to you Bianca.
So yummy and so easy. Thank you for the recipe. I used maple syrup instead of the honey. Love it.
Perfect!! Thank YOU! I really appreciate the feedback. x
Sooo yummy. I think I’ll have to make it again…. Tomorrow. ? Thank you.
Haha!! Love it! Thank YOU!
I made this yesterday and it’s so delicious! My 11 year old son and I both can’t stop eating it! 🙂 Thanks for another great recipe.
Thank YOU! I really appreciate the feedback and I am glad it is being enjoyed. x
Hi! I made this slice yesterday and it is so delicious! I was just wondering if you had any tips on how to make the base less crumbly? I pressed it into the tin very firmly and even added some extra oil but it still crumbles really easily which is sad cause I want to be able to eat every last bit it’s that good! Thanks heaps! Love all your recipes 🙂
Thank YOU!!! I am glad you enjoyed it!! You can add an extra tablespoon of nut butter and honey, I hope this helps. xxxx
Add coconut water as it blitzes to get sticky dough consistency!
Can i use anything other then nut butter
I have only made it this way but you could try hulled tahini ?
Could you use cashew butter instead?
Yes I think that would be fine. x
Hi Bianca,
Finally got my hands on some peppermint oil- doterra – this arvo & you post this. Whoo hoo….I’m making asap! How much of the oil would u use in place of the peppermint extract. I know the oil is alot more concentrated. I have all the “mint” recipes marked in your books…was just trying to work out quantities as they r all amounts for extract not oil.
Thanks heaps….have been looking forward to cooking these as long as I’ve been trying to get peppermint anything in the mountains!
🙂
You would only need about a drop or two
Thanks Ellen Shenfield I’ll give it a go!
🙂
Star with two drops but I personally would use 3 – 4 , it depends how strong you like it x
I made this today with cashew butter instead of almond and only had two spoons so I added a bit more honey. It turned out perfect!
That is great to hear!! Thank YOU xxx
I can’t eat coconut ? what could I use instead please ?
I have only made it this way sorry x
Hi Bianca another great recipe I cant wait to try this as well, I was wondering organic Almond flour here in NZ is 65.00kg,unorganic maybe 30 to 40.00 do you think sesame flour would be a good replacement
or buckwheat.
Bianca, can you advise us on how to store for best results? do you keep them in the fridge till serving?
Just made and ssmpled this. It was really crumbly on the base. Do you use redefined or unredefined coconut oil? Thinking this vvoukd be where ive gone wrong…

Hi Bianca, just made this now and my icing was quite hard and didn’t pour out, I had to press it into the base with my fingers. Not sure if you have any tips, or whether I should have used cocao instead of cocoa powder? Thanks so much, can’t wait to try it!!
