Today I decided to cook from the amazing second book by my incredible friend Anna Van Dyken.
I decided to make her Chocolate Almond Slice for Chris as he loves her slices - all of them. Well after I converted the recipe to be able to be made in my Thermomix (super easy) I popped it in the fridge.
When it was set it was ready to slice so I pulled out my pizza cutter from The Mix Shop and wow. Super easy!!
Proceeded to try a bite as I was talking a slice to Chris. Omg he didn’t get THAT slice. I ate the whole thing.
It’s amazing and so yummy. Sweet. Crunchy Mmmmmmm 💚

Almond Butter
For all sorts of recipes and totally yummy on toast!
- Thermomix
- 200 ROASTED Almonds (SEE NOTES)
-
Blend - 1 MINUTE | SPEED 9 – Scrape down the sides
-
Blend 30 SECONDS | SPEED 6 - Repeat until you are happy with the desired consistency
-
Transfer to a jar and store in the fridge

NOTE: You may notice that the bowl starts to heat up during the blending process due to the friction. Don’t worry about it. This helps to achieve a smooth paste.
When making the Almond Butter If using just Almonds, not roasted add 1tbsp Olive Oil as the nuts are not as oily.
