Protein Tim Tams (V) 

Ingredients:
Biscuits:

• 10ml coconut oil.
• 30ml almond milk
• 10g smooth nut butter or coconut butter 
• 20g coconut flour
• 40g plain or vanilla pea protein powder
• 20g almond meal
• 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
• 2 tsp granulated natural sweetener

Mousse filling:

• 30g coconut butter (or use real butter/cream cheese for non-vegan version), softened - not melted!
• 4 tsp sugar free drinking chocolate (or use 3 tsp granulated sweetener and 1 tsp cacao powder)
• 20g chocolate pea protein powder 
• 10ml almond milk

Coating:

• 5ml coconut oil
• 40g chocolate

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees celsius, fan-forced.
2. For the biscuits: Mix all ingredients together in a large mixing bowl until combined. With your hands, mould the mixture until it forms a dough-like consistency. Press this dough evenly into a lined loaf/brownie tin, and bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes until golden. Allow to cool.
3. For the filling: Whip all ingredients together in a large mixing bowl until combined. The texture should be like a light mousse, so make sure you don’t melt your butter into a liquid! Set aside.
4. Meanwhile, cut your biscuits into 16 even rectangles. Spread your filling across 8 biscuits, then place the remaining biscuits on top of each to create 8 biscuit ‘sandwiches’. Set in freezer while you make the coating.
5. For the coating: mix dark chocolate and coconut oil together and melt in the microwave or over a saucepan on boiling water. 
6. Once your biscuits and mousse set together, dip and coat in the melted chocolate, and place on baking paper.
7. Place all pieces in the freezer to set for another 2 hours before devouring! Best enjoyed chilled.
