Weekly Tip - Home made chocolate

September 09, 2022
I’m a big chocolate lover - so having a healthy alternative to my favourite treat is a must for me. These chocolates tastes just as good as the real deal but with the added benefit of being good for you! Containing organic coconut oil which is packed with lauric acid to fight off bacteria and viruses and raw organic cacao which is high in antioxidants, iron, calcium and magnesium.
Ingredients
1/2 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup raw cacao powder
3 tablespoons organic maple syrup
Method
Warm coconut oil until melted and then add the raw cacao in.
Stir in the maple syrup and the peppermint oil
Stir until well mixed
Pour into a silicon mould and leave to set in the fridge for at least 1hour.
Once set remove from mould and store in the fridge in an air tight container.
*Note - I love adding a little square to my porridge in the morning, it melts quickly and increases the nutritional value of my breakfast!
