Here is my much anticipated chocolate recipe for you :)
The great this about this recipe is that it is EASY, and has no refined sugar or E numbers or preservatives, is lactose free and they are SO delicious!
Ingredients: (makes approx. 30 small chocolates)
1/4 cup virgin coconut oil
1/4 cup cacao powder (not cocoa)
2 tablespoons honey (sub maple syrup to make this vegan)
Extras
Special Equipment:
1 (or 2) silicone molds
Method:
-Melt the coconut oil in a bain marie. Once melted, sift in the cacao powder & mix in honey.
-Carefully spoon the mixture into a silicone mold. Here if you want to add any extras, feel free - a dollop of peanut butter, a sprinkle of sea salt, you could add coarsely chopped almonds...the world is your oyster!
-Place in the freezer for about 20 minutes until fully set.
-Gently remove the chocolate from the mold when they are set, store in an airtight container in the fridge.
IMPORTANT! Make sure no water (not even a drop) enters the mixture as it will change the texture. Make sure the bowl & any utensils you use are completely dry, and the silicone mold too.
