A delicious take on afghan cookies using whole, minimally processed ingredients. With no oven needed, this slice takes next to no time to make and it is a great treat for any occasion - including an Easter afternoon tea. One to add to the “to make” list for sure.
1. For the base: put the rolled oats, coconut and sunflower seeds in a blender. Blend until you have a fine flour. Add all of the remaining ingredients, except the cornflakes, and blend again until you have a cookie dough consistency.
2. Place the afghan base into a bowl. Crush the cornflakes into the bowl and mix until the cornflakes are evenly distributed throughout the afghan mixture.
3. Line a loaf tin with baking paper and press the afghan base into the tin, using the back of a spoon to get a flat surface. Set aside.
4. For the chocolate ganache, melt the chocolate in the microwave or over a double boiler. Once melted, add the peanut butter and mix until smooth and thick. Pour the chocolate ganache over the afghan base and scatter the walnut halves on top. Place in the freezer to set for 1 hour.
5. Once set, cut into squares and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Alternatively, store in the freezer for up to 2 months.
