Chocolate Craving!

My Latest Batch.

When the body can no longer take those fancy and sugary chocolates in the stores, you gotta make your own.

I woke up from the bed this morning with one goal. I'm going to make a new batch of dark chocolate with almond and walnut in it. The ingredients are simple. I use 100% non-sugar dark cocoa powder, coconut oil and a bit of salt.

How about sugar? It's going to be so bitter, isn't it? I made a batch before without sugar and another batch where I added Lakanto. It's similar to Stevia but made from Monk fruit. The texture is white like sugar but tastes different. Personally, I prefer Lakanto than Stevia. And Lakanto doesn't kick me out from Ketosis and it has zero calories. Therefore, I added 1.5 teaspoons of (grind/crush) Lakanto in the mix.

Bear in mind that artificial sweetener is not WildFit friendly. I'm not sure if Lakanto falls under this category. Furthermore, I remember that chocolate is not WildFit friendly too. So I'm making these chocolate bars for one reason. There are days I just want to have chocolate melt in my mouth and be moody or be happy :). Since making chocolate is easy, why not I make them and keep it for those days :D

I chopped the nuts into small sizes and put it in the silicon mould. Then I used a teaspoon to add the chocolate mix into the mould. This round, I added non-sugar peanut butter into 4 pieces. I want to see if life make any sense when I eat them later (lol).

Keep it in the freezer for 30 minutes and then you can pack the chocolate into a small container and keep it in the refrigerator.

Unless you use Cocoa Butter, you can't leave your chocolate in the room temperature because the coconut oil in it will melt. Whenever I feel like eating them, I just open the refrigerator and eat them right away. This batch may last for a few weeks to a month (the previous batch lasted for 3 months).

Ingredients:
2/3 cup of cocoa powder
1/2 cup coconut oil
a pinch of salt
2 tsp of Lakanto
Almond and Walnut (optional)

Enjoy your life.
