Who’s got a sweet tooth? I do I do! If there’s one thing I’m known to overindulge in, it’s chocolate. I started making these homemade chocolates a while ago to reduce packaging, moderate the sugar level and other unnecessary additions, and add superfoods to make my chocolate habit more healthy. They give me a boost of energy, and I feel good sharing with my son. You can customize these with all sorts of goodies, like fruit, nuts, and spices! They’re so easy to make:
Warm 1 cup Coconut oil OR Cacao butter until just melted
Pour in the blender and blend with roughly: 1/2 cup cacao powder, 1/3 cup honey, and a dash of sea salt. (I love to add Sarvaa Superfoods Chocolate Plus Powder, which is chock full of nutritious superfoods.) Amounts are loose, have fun!
Pour it either into chocolate molds or simply onto a small tray covered with wax paper. At this point you can add other things like crumbled nuts, sea salt, or additional spices, such as cinnamon, cardamom, or nutmeg. Stick it in the fridge or freezer to harden. Enjoy cold. (OR- pour into a glass jar and keep in the cupboard to use by the spoonful or as homemade chocolate sauce! :)
