Equipment

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 170C.
  2. Beat the butter and Natvia until light and creamy. Add the egg and beat until incorporated. Sift in the cacao, flour and baking powder and add the salt. Stir with a spatula until combined.
  3. Turn the dough out onto the bench and lightly knead until it is smooth. Roll out in between 2 pieces of baking paper until it is about 2cm thick. Freeze for 20 minutes. Remove and slice into 16 small rectangles.
  4. Bake in the oven for 18-20 minutes. Remove from the oven and carefully place on a wire rack to cool completely.
  5. Beat the cream and Natvia until creamy. Add the cacao powder and vanilla bean paste and beat until combined. Smear onto the back of one of the cookies and sandwich together with another cookie. Repeat until all are sandwiched together.
  6. Place in the refrigerator to set.
  7. Melt the chocolate in the microwave. Stir through the coconut oil until melted. Using two forks dip the tim tams into the chocolate and place on a baking paper. Place in the fridge for 15 minutes to set.

Notes

Tip
This recipe is designed to be sugar-free using Natvia sweetener.
Tip
The instructions mention melting chocolate and coconut oil for the coating in step 7, but these are not listed in the ingredients. You will need to source these separately.
Tip
Step 5 mentions 'cream' for the filling, but the ingredients list specifies 'butter'. It is likely a typo and should be butter.
Storage
Place in the refrigerator to set and store in an airtight container in the fridge.
