These chocolates are the perfect treat to have at home to avoid the white stuff (refined sugar). They're delicious and ridiculously easy to make. The chocolate base is 3 ingredients, that's it! Then you can add your flavorings and toppings of choice. If you like very dark chocolate, omit the sweetener and just use spices to sweeten. My favorite are turmeric and maca powders.
1/4 cup raw cacao powder
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
1/2-1 Tablespoon coconut sugar or raw honey
Optional Flavorings and Toppings
Vanilla extract
Turmeric
Cinnamon
Ginger
Maca powder
Mesquite powder
Sea salt
Cacao nibs
Raw nuts and seeds
Shredded coconut
Procedure
- Mix all ingredients in a small bowl. If adding flavorings, add them now.
- Place mixture in chocolate molds or in a small dish lined with parchment paper. Top with desired toppings and place in freezer until firm (about 20 minutes).
- Remove from mold or dish. Store in the refrigerator or freezer.
