Tip:
To achieve the creamiest and smoothest mint moringa filling. It’s essential to soak the cashews. For at least 4 hours. This soaking process softens the cashews. Making them easier to blend. Into a silky, uniform texture. If you’re in a hurry. You can use hot water. To speed up the process. Just soak the cashews in hot water. For about 1 hour. This method ensures that your filling is not grainy. And has a perfect consistency. For sandwiching between the cookies.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I substitute the coconut oil with another type of oil?
Yes. You can use any neutral oil like vegetable or canola oil. But coconut oil adds a nice subtle flavor. That complements the mint and moringa.
