Lol
Cookie, it certainly doesn't have to have chocolate on it. The original recipe doesn't. But I think it would go really nicely with the nuts in the slice, and dark chocolate is good for you anyway, right?

I made this today and was keen to try it. I really liked it DH wasn't too keen but he likes things sweeter. I melted a small chocolate I bought in Shark Bay today and sort of drizzled it over it. I only had a plastic tub to put it in but it seems fine.
A nice healthy slice or truffle. I added milk instead of water to bring it all together. The chia seeds are quite crunchy in it.
Very tasty.

Thanks for your review Cookie
A shame DH wasn't too keen but we can't win them all, can we?

Sadly you are right Amy. Although he tucked into the leftovers today. Perhaps he had too much sweet stuff yesterday.
I didn't have a pretty dish to put the last piece on for the photo, so I put it on top of the bread machine loaf.

Just made this as I had some roasted almonds blitzed that I needed used. I used them instead of the walnuts.
I decided to use melt some chocolate to put on top (instead of icing sugar). Will look forward to one after dinner with a cuppa....or 2.

Yes, I found it hard too Chookie, however I'd just eaten a rather large pizza so I guess my will power didn't have to work too hard
I haven't given any to the kids yet - I actually forgot to mention that I added only 30gms of chia seeds as the taste can be quite strong. I could really taste them in the first 1 or 2 bites but then all I could think of was how yummy it was.

I'm really excited as I'm on a low iodine diet as part of my treatment which makes so many foods off limits, however, I can eat everything in the list of ingredients! Yay! I am definitely going to try this today - I wonder if it would work as bliss balls. I'll see how the mixture feels... watch this space! Great recipe - looks healthy and delicious!

I did a couple of them as bliss balls before I popped them into my mouth. I loved the crunch of the chia. I didn't tell anyone what they had in them. After a few more DH decided that were ok after all.

I really MUST make this! It would be perfect for when I'm after something sweet. I like the idea of dark chocolate on top.

A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.
