Ingredients
- 4 Tablespoons coconut oil
- 4 Tablespoons honey agave, or powdered Truvia
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract or other flavors/oils
- ½ cup + 1 Tablespoon cocoa powder
Instructions
- In a small bowl, microwave the coconut oil and honey or powdered Truvia until melted, about 40 seconds. If you use agave or liquid Stevia, you can probably add them after the coconut oil is melted.
- Stir in the vanilla extract
- Stir in the cocoa powder and stir well.
- Add mix-ins, such as chopped almonds or crisp rice and stir well.
- Spread the chocolate onto wax paper-lined sheet or into candy molds and put in the fridge or freezer until hard. This is best kept chilled to keep it firm. Enjoy!
Notes
* For powdered Truvia: place Truvia in a small grinder/food processor with a flat blade and process until fine and powdery. Measure for recipe after the Truvia has been powdered.
I made a third batch of this chocolate with the liquid Stevia. I used 40 drops to make it sweet enough for my liking, and it is still quite dark. My favorite of all the sweeteners is the honey. It has the best flavor and texture compared to the others. I am still tweaking this recipe to perfect it! More updates to follow
**Oil used in this recipe MUST be an oil or fat that is solid at room temperature, such as coconut oil, palm oil, or cocoa butter. This will not work if you sub out coconut oil for a liquid oil.
