Ingredients:
- 120 grams cacao/cocoa butter (about 1 cup of cacao butter chunks)
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup room-temperature pure maple syrup (or liquid sweetener of choice)
- pinch of fine grain sea salt
- Flaked sea salt, for finishing
Directions:
- Gently melt the cacao butter in a pot over the lowest heat setting. Or you can use a double boiler.
- Whisk all other ingredients (except flaked sea salt) into the pot.
- Pour into 12 silicone cups and sprinkle with flaked sea salt (optional). Alternatively, you can use paper liners (they will stick a tiny bit but will still peel off) or line a baking sheet with parchment paper and drop spoonfuls all over the paper. Plastic chocolate molds may stick.
- Freeze for 30 minutes or until firm. Pop chocolate out of the cups and enjoy immediately. Store in the fridge or freezer until ready to use.
Note: I’ve changed the directions to omit the blending process. The blender seems to yield a softer, thicker mixture while simply mixing by hand resulted in a firmer chocolate that poured easily. I much preferred the chocolate when mixing by hand.
