0.000 HBD🍫Go Coco-NUTS for Homemade Creamy, Fudgy Chocolate Bars!🍫
# Did you know you could make your own chocolate bars? They're actually really easy to make (*and they're healthier for you!*) ____________  ______________ Have you ever read a label on any of your favorite chocolate bars? They're kind of scary... most of them sound like words from a chemistry textbook. **What even are those things? Are they food or a lab experiment?** Anyways, I'm not a super big fan of ingredients like that so I decided that instead of giving up the treats I just **LOVE**, I would just make my own, healthier (*more delicious*) versions! These guys are **vegan** (dairy-free, egg-free), **processed sugar-free**, **gluten-free** and, **raw!** Best of all, they're delicious! _________  ___________ They look pretty good right? I can tell you they taste even better! **Come on and give them a try!** _______  ____________ ### What you need: _________ **Fudge** ________ + 1/4 cup almonds + 1/2 cup dates + 1/4 cup raw cacao powder + 1 tbs coconut oil + 1 tsp vanilla + 1 tsp salt _______________ **Cream** ________ + 1 1/2 cup almonds (*soaked over night*) + 1 coconut (*use the meat from inside, about 1 cup or 1 cup pre-made coconut cream*) + 1/2 cup peanut butter (*or nut butter of choice*) + 1/4 cup maple syrup + 1/4 cup coconut milk + 1 tsp vanilla + 1 tsp sea salt ____________  _____________ ### What to do: ____________ **Fudge** _________  __________ + Put all of the base ingredients into a food processor and pulse until thick, sticky texture comes to life! ___________  _________ + Press small amounts into a tray or pan (*whatever you want to use*) to form a thin base layer. *Make sure to use coconut oil to rub down whatever you add this mix to so it doesn't stick!* __________  __________ + Put in freezer to set! _____________ **Cream** __________ + Add the almonds to the coconut meat with the syrup, milk, vanilla and salt and blend together. ____________  ______________ + Once you have a cream, add in the nut butter and blend again until everything is mixed evenly. ___________________  _______________ + Add on top of the base layer evenly. _________________  __________ + Fight the temptation to eat it right away and put it in the freezer for about an hour or two to set. + Once it's frozen, either cut into bars or pop out of the containers and enjoy! _____________  ____________ **Can you believe it?** ___________  ____________ **Your own, personalized chocolate bars, made that easily!** _______________  ____________ **Wouldn't you rather this than the kind with the wrappers and crazy ingredients? ME TOO!** ___________  __________ **Feel free to eat a bunch, they're made with healthy ingredients!** ___________   <center> I truly believe we can heal ourselves through food and it is my mission in life to create and inspire delicious, mouth watering creations that are beneficial and packed full of plant based goodies to fuel our bodies, minds and lives!
