Caramel Chocolate Doughnut Cookies

Caramel Chocolate Doughnut Cookies

A fun recipe using silicon doughnut moulds. These caramel chocolate doughnut cookies are a fun take on Twix bars and made with healthier ingredients! Twix meets doughnuts! A doughnut shaped biscuits (aka cookie) with a layer of caramel all dipped in chocolate. The crunchy biscuit with the sweet caramel goes so well with the bitter dark chocolate coating and there's just a pinch of salt in the caramel to help intensify the flavour. All topped with a drizzle of caramel and crunchy nuts to make it look super pretty. I've made a couple of doughnut shaped desserts in the past that aren't actually doughnuts. I do love the idea of using doughnut silicon moulds to make something more creative and [...]

Vegan Salted Caramel Chocolate Protein Bars

* This post is sponsored by The Protein Works* A yummy post-workout snack that tastes like a dessert! These vegan salted caramel chocolate protein bars are no-bake and really easy to put together!

I used to regularly stock up vegan protein bars to have in my cupboard for a rainy day or to take with me on the go, but they can be really expensive, especially considering how easy they are to make [...]

Protein Cookie Dough Cups

Protein Cookie Dough Cups

* This post is sponsored by Juice Plus+* An easy snack that requires few ingredients and steps - these protein cookie dough cups are no-bake and super tasty! I’ve always loved adding protein powder to my treats and snacks as you can easily bump up the nutrient content. Sweetened protein powders also add lots of flavour without having to add too much sweetener or not needing to add any at all! It’s a great alternative to flour in baking, but I prefer to use it in no-bake recipes as I feel the taste comes through a lot better. I created this recipe using Complete Vanilla Shake by Juice Plus+®, which is completely vegan and dairy-free. High in protein with some healthy [...]
