Method

1. Line a small container with non-stick paper (10 x 15cm).

3. For the caramel rice puff layer, in a food processor make the peanut date caramel by blending the dates, date water and Mayver’s Smooth Peanut Butter until smooth. In another bowl, add in the rice puffs, protein powder and then pour int the peanut date caramel. Mix until the protein powder has dissolved and date caramel is evenly covering all the rice puffs. Sprinkle the roasted peanuts over the rice puff layer.

4. Put the slice into the freezer for 30 minutes.

5. Remove the slice from the freezer and cut into 6 logs.

6. For the chocolate coating, melt the dark chocolate and stir in the Mayver’s Smooth Peanut Butter until smooth. Pour the chocolate over each log.  Put the chocolate bar back into the freezer for 30 more minutes until set.
