Choc Mint Tarts
There is nothing in the world quite like the combination of chocolate and mint. At Clean Mixes, we're big fans, but it's a flavour combination that can cause much discussion in families when it comes to things like a box of Roses Chocolates.
If you love choc mint as much as we do, then you're going to adore this gorgeous new clean treat recipe. Absolutely bursting with flavour and an equal amount of nutrional goodness, this is a beautifully minty, slightly sweet treat that is not to be missed.
These Choc Mint Tarts also happen to be GF, DF and free of refined sugars, AND RAW!! It has matcha - a green tea extract, to give the filling the lovely green colour. Matcha is packed with antioxidants and has been shown to impart a variety of health benefits.
In a nutshell, these Choc Mint Tarts are not only delicious, they are also packed with nutritious ingredients....what's not to love??
