Instructions
 

  • Instructions
  • Step 1: Prepare the Base
  • Crush the whole grain biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a ziplock bag and crushing them with a rolling pin.
  • In a bowl, mix the biscuit crumbs with almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until the mixture holds together.
  • Press the mixture firmly into a lined cake pan or rectangular dish, creating an even base.
  • Refrigerate for 15–20 minutes while preparing the chocolate layer.
  • Step 2: Make the Chocolate Cream Filling
  • Melt the dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water or microwave it in 20-second intervals, stirring in between.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, cocoa powder, coconut cream, and chia seeds.
  • Slowly pour in the melted chocolate, stirring continuously to create a smooth and creamy texture.
  • Step 3: Assemble the Layers
  • Spread half of the chocolate mixture over the chilled biscuit base.
  • Add another layer of whole grain biscuits on top.
  • Pour the remaining chocolate mixture over the second biscuit layer, spreading evenly.
  • Garnish with crushed nuts, fresh berries, and shaved dark chocolate.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best texture.
