DIY Chocolate

Making your own chocolate means control in the quality of ingredients and allows creativity to add whatever other flavors you like!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 to 1 cup raw organic cacao powder
  • 1/4 cup organic coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup almond milk
  • Sweetener to taste (20 drops liquid stevia or 2 tablespoons maple syrup)

Instructions

Melt coconut oil over a double boiler. Stir in sweetener and almond milk until well combined.

Whisk in cacao powder until very smooth. Add a handful of nuts, raisins, cacao nibs, or a teaspoon of a favorite spice.

Spread out on a pan lined in with wax paper and chill. When firm, cut into square.

Make truffles: Alternately, scoop out by the tablespoon and roll into balls. Roll each ball in cacao powder, coconut, cacao nibs, or sesame seeds. Store in the refrigerator.
