Angela: The famous Arnott’s Monte Carlo biscuits are high in sugar (1 1/2 teaspoons per biscuit and who stops at one!) why not try instead our healthy superfood packed version. Enjoy Lynda’s healthy version:

Lynda: Who didn’t love the famous Arnott’s Monte Carlo biscuits growing up. I certainly did. Rather than dose up on a bucket load of sugar and chemicals I decided to recreate this family favourite. Why deprive when you can recreate right?

Biscuit base and top

Method

Blend all ingredients together, roll into balls and flatten. Use a cookie cutter (I used my coconut cutter through desperation) to cut circles. Freeze for an hour.

Creamy centre

  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup desiccated coconut
  • 2 tbsp coconut butter
  • 1/2 vanilla powder
  • 1/4 tsp Himalayan salt

Method

Blend ingredients together, pop in fridge for 15 mins for a slightly firmer consistency. Pop a dollop on the biscuit base and pop another biscuit on top of the cream. Freeze and defrost 1/2 hour before eating.

I made far to much centre so I poured the remainder into a baking tray and made white chocolate. Sprinkled with Mesquite powder and Gogi berries of course 🙂

Big thanks to Naturopath Lynda Griparic for the recipe.
