Recipe Notes

Variations:

* Instead of LSA you could use – almond meal OR ‘Magic seed mix’ OR extra flour

** Instead of maple syrup and macadamia oil you could use raw honey and melted coconut oil

I have also tried this using 120g room temperature butter and 50g rapadura sugar. They were crumblier but totally delicious.

Oh and a friend said “you know what I love most about these is the big chunks of chocolate” so don’t chop it up too fine.
