Make Your Own Chocolate-- Simple and Easy
We all love chocolate. But did you know, it's actually very simple to make your own at home? So easy, you can even do it with your kids, all without any dairy products. We'll show you how to make delicious chocolate squares and also how to turn them into chocolate bark.
Chocolate Squares
Ingredients
75g Cocoa Powder (Camino)
100g Coconut Oil (Alpha DME)
3 tbsp Honey (Jo Anne's Place Bulk Foods)
2 tsp Vanilla Extract (Orchid)
Weigh the coconut oil and spoon into a microwave safe bowl.
Heat in the microwave at short 10-15 second intervals, stirring in between, until the oil has completely melted and is clear.
Add the cocoa powder, honey and vanilla extract to the melted coconut oil. Quickly stir until fully combined and smooth.
Spoon chocolate into an ice cube tray or silicone mould.
Add nuts and/or dried fruit if wanted.
Place in the freezer until set, around 15-20 minutes
Pop out of the mould and enjoy!
For Chocolate Bark:
Pour the chocolate mixture onto a lined baking tray and spread out over the tray with the back of the spoon.
Place the baking tray into the fridge or freezer until set, around 10-15 minutes.
Once set, break or cut the slab of chocolate into smaller pieces.
Serve and enjoy!
Note: Once set, this type of chocolate should be stored in an airtight box in the fridge until ready to eat, as it will melt and get very soft in a warm room.
