Recipe Tips

Flavor by adding orange zest, peanut butter, dried coconut, chopped nuts, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, etc., to taste and consistency desired. Stir in after melting coconut oil, cocoa powder, honey, and vanilla together.

You can use maple syrup instead of honey.

The number of servings and the time it will take for the chocolate to set depends on the thickness of the mold(s) used.

This chocolate is not recommended for baking and must be kept refrigerated.
