Recipe's preparation

  1. 1. Line a slice tray with baking paper.

     

    2. Place cashews and almonds in the bowl 8 secs/sp 7 (to form almond meal consistency). Set aside.

     

    2A. If using shaved coconut, place coconut in bowl and 3 secs/sp 7. Set aside. If using shredded or dessicated, skip this step and just add in step 4.

     

    3.  Place coconut oil in bowl and heat on 37deg/1min/sp 1.5. (time will depend on room temperature and solidity of oil - No need to heat in summer, maybe 2 mins in winter). It blends better if melted.

     

    4. Add Dates, coconut, Cocoa, nuts and process for 20 secs/sp 5.

     

    5. Empty mixture into tray and flatten to cover bottom evenly. Place in fridge or freezer until set. Cut into pieces with long knife. 

Tip

If you love chocolate, this is serioiusly one of the best recipes I've tried. It tastes like coconut rough.

I was handed this recipe at a demo and I have no idea who's it is but it was far too good not to share. Everyone who trys this, makes it over and over as it's so quick and delicious.

Hazelnuts or other nuts can be  used instead of the nuts listed.

This recipe is paleo, sugar free, egg free, gluten free and delicious.

I prefer to use organic ingredients. I keep mine in the freezer but it can be kept in the fridge. I like mine in small pieces but you can make larger pieces (there will just be less).

5 mins preparation, 15 mins in freezer to set.

    This recipe is sensational. Definitely a great alternative to real choc. I made it with dry roasted almonds instead of almonds and it really gave it that strong flavour. Love the idea from a fellow thermomixer about adding peppermint essence, I’ll try that next time. Thanks so much for posting and creating a healthy option x

    I wanted to comment again to show my appreciation for this recipe. I’ve made it several times and it helps me avoid buying store bought chocolates which is amazing !!! I made it again today and added 1tsp peppermint extract for a choc mint flavour and it’s really nice not too strong I might even add a bit more next time Smile
