Easy 3 Ingredient Chocloate
You won’t even believe how easy this chocolate that is much better for you than normal chocolate is… and the way it tastes will simply blow your mind.
Difficulty: Easy
Cooking time: less than 15 minutes
Serves: 10 or more
Ingredients
- Raw cacao powder (or unsweetened cocoa powder)
- Honey ( or refined sugar-free sweetener of your choice like maple syrup or agave)
- Coconut oil
Method
- Using a ratio of 1:1:1 (i.e. one cup of each ingredients or 1/2 a cup of each – depending on how much you want to make), mix the ingredients together over a very low heat to make a chocolate sauce.
- Pour it into a lined baking tray, decorate it with nuts, seeds, berries, dried fruits and flowers of your choice and then pop it in the freezer for 5 minutes to go solid.
And that’s three-ingredient “healthier” chocolate.
Break it up like chocolate bark and enjoy it – guilt-free – whenever you need a sneaky chocolate hit.
To get into the Easter spirit, use easter moulds of your choice for a bit of fun – This will take a little longer time!
Note:
we recommend storing it in the freezer or fridge to keep it nice and solid.
All sweet treats should be eaten in moderation; this is a refined sugar and dairy free version that can be made vegan by using a sweetener other than honey.
