This week from Anna’s Healing Home – Easter Love Chocolates.
Anna whips up a simple recipe for the perfect, healthy alternative to Easter chocolate!
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons raw unsweetened cacao powder
- 3 tablespoons melted coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon raw honey or organic maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons almond butter
- ½ tablespoons vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
- 15 frozen or fresh raspberries
Instructions
- Add the cacao powder, coconut oil, almond butter, honey/maple, and salt to a heat-proof bowl. Over medium-low heat, melt the ingredients in a double boiler, stirring frequently.
- Fill candy moulds with the chocolate, then add a raspberry in the centre.
- Freeze or chill in the fridge for about 15 minutes, or until the chocolate sets.
Notes
Store chocolate in the fridge or freezer. The chocolate melts at room temperature because of the coconut oil, especially if you live in a warm place.
If you have a nut allergy, you can omit the almond butter, or substitute it with a seed butter like sunbutter or tahini, or you can use peanut butter.
