The best chocolate slice! (HEALTHY + VEGAN)

Vegan peanut butter chocolate slice!
The best way to curb those chocolate cravings. I love this recipe because the ingredients are all ones you can find in your own kitchen without going out to the health store to purchase a bunch of expensive packets of protein stuff you'll probably only use once! Plus its easy to replace ingredients with options you have available, it's not a strict recipe :)

The best thing about these litter delights is that you can make it completely sugar free, by adding only natural fruit sugar instead of refined sugars!

I originally got this recipe from the Lorna Jane app, but i have to modified it to my personal taste, but all credit goes to her and her amazingness!!

I highly recommend everyone go and download her app, of not for the recipes then to track physical activity and for some lovely fitness motivation! I will be doing a post on all my favourite health apps soon.
