INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 50g butter
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 2 tbsp Nuvia Sweetener
- 2 tbsp coconut flour
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt (only if peanut butter is unsalted)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
METHOD
- 1. In a small saucepan over a low-medium heat melt the butter, coconut milk, peanut butter, coconut milk and Nuvia and whisk until just combined. This will happen quickly and if on the heat for too long the mixture will split so just be careful! Transfer to a bowl as soon as it’s mostly combined.

- 3. Press into a small tin lined with baking paper and place in the fridge or freezer to set. Slice and serve or store in the fridge.
