Notes
*You can buy coconut oil from some supermarkets or online e.g. from MuscleFood – use the code NIC5 for 5% off!
**You can get ground almonds from the baking section in supermarkets and you can read more about Powdered Peanut Butter (PPB) in my PPB review! If you have a nut allergy than you could use ground flaxseeds or protein powder instead.
***Read more about sweeteners [here].
****If you're using cocoa swap 1 tbsp of the ground almonds/PPB for 1 tbsp cocoa.
*****You can get heart-shaped silicone ice cube trays from Amazon.
