Notes
Making your own chocolate is so simple. This pistachio dark chocolate is made with 100% cacao which is rich in antioxidants and it can help support, heart, brain and gut health.
Tips:
Once you have got your base layer (coconut oil, cocoa powder and a touch of honey) If you like your chocolate bitter, you can add less honey or omit it completely. Try adding different extras such as:
- Chopped dates
- Other nuts and seeds
- Raisins
- Desiccated coconut
- Peanut butter
