Raw Chocolate Dice

I'm not normally a gambler, but i took a chance on these raw chocolate treats from Ciara Beauge, and it totally paid off.. Winner alright :-)

I have to say while on my food experiments that i am on, i sometimes do miss my little chocolate treats. What better way to indulge than on homemade raw chocolate treats. With this one you can play around with flavors and enjoy them all, whatever flavors you like. For mine i used desiccated coconut, flaked almonds, raspberries and crushed oat cakes.


Ingredients
  • 60g raw cocoa powder
  • 60g cocoa butter
  • 35g coconut palm sugar (you could also use agave syrup/raw honey or maple syrup)

Optional Additionals

  • 2 Oat cakes crushed
  • 1 Tbsp crushed frozen rasberries
  • 1 Tbsp desiccated coconut
  • 1 Tbsp flaked almonds

Method

  1. Over a pan of hot water melt the cocoa butter in a bowl
  2. Remove from heat and mix in cocoa powder and coconut palm sugar
  3. Once everything is completely coated you can add in your additional fillers. *

  4. Pour the mixture into the chocolate moulds and put in fridge or freezer to set ( depending on how much patience you have )
* Note for the frozen raspberries it is best to put the raspberries in the chocolate mould first and pour the chocolate mixture over it.

Once set these can be stored in the fridge or freezer and gamble at your leisure.
