This recipe was inspired by Minimalist Baker

Ingredients:

• 1 cup melted coconut oil

• 1/2 cup coconut cream (or less, if you don’t want it as fudgy)

• 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

• 1/4 cup coconut sugar, powdered

• 1 pinch sea salt

• 1/4 tsp English toffee sweetener

Toppings (Optional, but recommended)

• Chopped nuts (recommended: pecans, walnuts, almonds, or pistachios)

• Vegan caramel sauce

• Cacao Nibs

• Sea Salt

Method:

• Combine melted coconut oil, coconut cream (room temp.), cocoa powder, coconut sugar, a pinch of sea salt, and the toffee sweetener in a bowl with an immersion blender or hand mixer.

• Here you’ll want to do a taste test and adjust to your own personal taste

• Pour your chocolate into a mold, or on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and add your toppings

• Transfer to the freezer, making sure they sit flat, for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate is set.

• Pop the chocolate from the molds or chop into bars if you used a baking sheet

• Store in the refrigerator or in a cool space (as it has a low melting point due to the coconut oil)
