- 230g plain flour
- 45g Food Thoughts cacao powder
- 40g caster sugar
- 45ml ice cold water
- For the bottom filling layer:
- 4 tablespoons smooth peanut butter
- For the top filling layer:
- 150g smooth peanut butter

- 130g Food Thoughts dark chocolate chips
- To decorate:

Method
Begin by preheating the oven to 180c and greasing a tart tin.
In a blender, add the butter, flour, cacao powder and caster sugar. Blend for a few seconds until a crumb like mixture forms.
Next add the cold water and blend until the mixture comes together into a ball of dough in the blender. Empty it into the tart tin and flatten into the base and up the sides until the tin is completely covered.
Use a fork to make a few holes in the base and then place the tin into the oven for 14 minutes. Remove and allow to cool for 10 minutes before spreading the peanut butter over the bottom of the base.
For the top filling layer melt the dark chocolate chips in 30 seconds increments until melted. Combine with the room temperature cream and peanut butter until smooth. Pour on top of the peanut butter layer.
Place the tart into the fridge to set for a minimum of 1 hour. Overnight is even better.
Melt 50g dark chocolate chips to decorate and finish by adding some crushed peanuts.
