Instructions

  1. Soak cashews as directed in recipe notes.
  2. Prepare the Ice Cream: Blend soaked cashews, coconut milk, maple syrup, peanut butter, vanilla bean paste, and yogurt until smooth. Pour into a lined 11″x7″ or 8″x8″ baking tin, tapping to remove air bubbles. Freeze for 2 hours.
  3. Make the Peanut Caramel: Whisk together peanut butter, maple syrup, maca powder, plant-based milk, and salt until smooth. Refrigerate.
  4. Assemble the Bars: Spread caramel over the set ice cream layer, then sprinkle with roasted peanuts, pressing them gently. Freeze for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  5. Cut and Coat the Bars: Lift the set mixture from the tin and cut into 12 bars. Freeze the bars again. Melt chocolate gently over a double boiler.
  6. Dip the Bars in Chocolate: Dip each frozen bar into the melted chocolate, using a fork to cover all sides. Sprinkle with sea salt and let set for 10 minutes.
