I love chocolate. A lot. But, all the stuff in the store has yucky stuff in it. So, now I make my own! Want to know the best part about it?! It's healthy! That's right! I can feel good about eating my daily chocolate. Ha!
Chocolate:
1 Cup cocoa powder (organic is best)
1 cup organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
1/4 - 1/2 cup raw honey
A smidge of gluten free vanilla
5 drops of peppermint essential oil (optional if you want a delicious minty freshness to it)
- Melt 1/2 the coconut oil on low in a pan & let it cool slightly.
- Place remaining 1/2 cup of solid coconut oil, the coca powered, honey, (and other ingredients if desired) in the food processer. Add melted oil and blend.
- Pulse the food processer a few times until the mixture is smooth. Do not over mix or ingredients will separate.
- Line a glass casserole pan with parchment paper.
- Pour fudge over parchment paper.
- Place in fridge until solid (about a 1/2 an hour).
- Gently remove parchment paper from glass pan, place on cutting board or counter, and gently cut the hardened chocolate into squares.
- Store in the refrigerator or freezer in a tightly sealed container.
