Base layer:

Toffee layer:

  2. Once ready, spread the filling on top of the base layer, spread it out evenly with a spoon.

Raw Chocolate layer:

  1. Melt the chocolate and coconut oil at very low heat. (Below 42 °C)
  2. Pour the chocolate layer over the caramel layer and spread evenly. Leave to set in the freezer for a couple of hours, then put in the fridge for 1 or 2 hours before serving.
  3. Decorate with some grated vanoffee chocolate. Enjoy!
