What I did do though, was think about making a chocolate with the least amount of ingredients, and as simple as it sounds, it actually is simple to make.
This is the basic recipe, I like my chocolate dark, but you can play around with the amounts to your own liking.
It works best with silicon molds, available in many shapes, or otherwise use muffin cups.
1/2 cup of cocoa butter
2 tbsp cocoa powder
1 tbsp raisins, chopped
Melt the cocoa butter au bain marie, then mix in the cocoa powder & last add in the chopped raisins.
Scoop the mixture evenly into the molds, and let it set in a cool place, do not refrigerate.
Additional ingredients:
- chopped almonds
- shredded coconut
- goji berries
The chocolate in the pictures had some chopped almonds & shredded coconut added.
Upgrade yourself!
I'm happy to see a "natural and no sugar added" recipe. I can't wait to try it. Do you know how they should be stored and how long they CAN be stored? As long as a candy bar?
ReplyDeleteIf you can even keep them for long! ;-)
DeleteThey should store for quite a while though at room temp, just make sure it's in an airtight container. I think they could actually keep for a few months!
