Recipe
Ingredients
- 40g shaved cacao butter
- ¼ cup coconut butter
- ¼ cup raw cacao powder
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin coconut oil
- 1 tbsp alcohol-free vanilla extract
- 10–12 drops stevia liquid, or 1 tsp powder, or to taste
Method
- To make dark chocolate, melt butters in a bowl over a saucepan of boiling water. Add other ingredients and whisk until smooth.
- Place in love heart moulds and freeze for 30 mins.
- Remove from freezer and wait a few minutes before popping chocolate out of moulds. If in hard moulds, tap bottoms until hearts fall out.
- Alternatively, to make white chocolate, follow same method but omit cacao powder.
- The chocolates will keep in the freezer for up to 1 month. You can make other versions to suit your taste by adding orange or peppermint extract, crushed raw almonds, walnuts or cashews.
