Healthy Homemade Chocolate Recipe

I mix 1 cup Wild Harvest Coconut Oil melted with 1 cup of pure Cocoa powder in a saucepan on gentle heat. I then mix in a teaspoon of organic vanilla and 2 tablespoons of organic honey and 2 tablespoons of maple syrup. If it’s not sweet enough you can add another 2 tablespoons of organic rice malt syrup and a little cinnamon. Mix this altogether thoroughly and pour into little chocolate moulds. Put in fridge and eat whenever you feel like it.

I thought I’d add this because I saw Ray_Jay’s post comment about my homemade sugarless chocolate. This recipe is classed as sugarless because there is no refined white sugar in it but it’s still sweet enough because of the maple syrup, organic honey and organic rice malt syrup.

Enjoy! Please add any other sugarless healthful recipe here too that you have because I used to be a sweet-tooth and now I’m a don’t eat sugar!

    I did make these the other week!
    I used the silicone ice trays from ikea!
    I did find that the maple syrup leaked out a bit after they where set?
    I only used a dash!
    I also found they kind of tastes sweeter a few days later

    Oh sorry everyone! They look shocking!!! I did crack the tops when taking them out. Really sorry about how they look. Needless to say, this is my first attempt at chocolate making 🙂

    CB don’t be sorry! I think this is awesome that you had a go at it! You are now a chocolatier! : ) I know they’d taste great too. : )

    Haha thanks *softness* 🙂
    A chocolatier, wow, that’s pretty impressive! I like it 😉

    I bought a chocolate mould tray from Big W and I’ll try with it next time.

    If I want it more like milk chocolate, do I use less cocoa? Maybe 1/2 cup or so? I think I’d like to try that.

    *Hey softness*, you changed your avatar!!
    I could have sworn I just saw your smiling picture, are my eyes playing tricks on me 😉
    But this kitty is soo adorable!

    I did change my avatar CB – yep you are right! I tend to change it from time to time.

    It’s great you bought a chocolate mould – I use the soft silicone ones because I find them easy to pop the chocolates out. I have a bunny head mould that I bought through Avon and it’s really cute. Plus sometimes I’ll pour the mixture into those mini metallic ‘cup cake’ papers. The paper then just peels away easily from the chocolate and I don’t even need to pop them out of a mould to eat them.

    I’m not a very good cook so I’m not sure how you make this recipe more milky instead of just straight dark chocolate tasting. (But I guess some milk powder replacing some of the cocoa could work?) It would be worth experimenting if you love milk chocolate more than dark.

    Have fun with your chocolateiring!

    softness,
    I found 2 smaller silicone moulds at KMart and yes, thanks for reminding me that these are easier to pop the chocolates out. Good tip!

    softness aka sweetness you are a good cook because this recipe is healthy, clever and easy to prepare. And you’ve explained the method clearly to others too! And if you’re talented enough to make a bunny head chocolate and try other cups/moulds as well, that’s excellent cooking skills and knowledge!
    Thanks, I’ll play around with it, milk powder sounds good. I’m sure I can experiment making the chocolates! Just call me CherryBlossom Wonka ;))

    Thanks so much for this. I am in love with you joking winks.
    Your amazing..I’m going to try it today seeing as I did my shopping yesterday. Xx

    No probs ray_jay. They are quite healthy to eat compared to chocolate from the shops. Here’s to good health! : )

    They still look good CB. I am assuming they end up like dark chocolate?

    Yes Jatz – they do have a dark chocolate taste. Sorry, should have put that in my intro. They are not a milky chocolate but more a healthy dark chocolate taste.

    Here’s them in the container and I’m storing them in the fridge. Hopefully less scary in this photo. Sorry.

    Wow CB! I’m impressed that you did this so fast. Great work!

    I’ve never used golden syrup. But that would make them a lot sweeter I guess!
