Recipe of the Week: Chocolate Hazelnut Bites
Serves: Makes 8-10
Takes: 5 minutes plus chilling
What you need:
1tbsp coconut oil, melted
3 tbsp Meridian hazelnut butter
50g vegan chocolate
A sprinkle of Maldon salt (optional)
Steps: Combine the coconut oil and hazelnut butter well and put in the freezer to firm up. Melt the chocolate and set aside to cool. When the hazelnut mixture has set use two teaspoons to mould rough balls then dip them in the melted chocolate. Add a flake or two of Maldon salt if including. Return to the freezer.
