As previous post stated I've been trying to get more into the Christmas spirit and by baking things that reminds me of Christmas from when I was little I think I can achieve this. Yesterday I decided to make some delicious chocolate and mint sticks. Recipe taken from livinghealthywithchocolate.com
Ingredients
makes about 15 sticks
6 tbsp melted coconut oil
4 tbsp cocoa powder
4 tbsp almond butter
2 tbsp honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp peppermint extract
pinch of salt
60 ml shredded coconut
60 ml pecans or walnuts
Stir together coconut oil, cocoa powder, almond butter, honey, vanilla, peppermint extract and salt in a large bowl. Heat up the mixture slowly over a pot of boiling water for about 5-10 minutes until mixture is completely combined.
Chop the pecans coarsely in a food processor. Add the nuts and coconut to the chocolate mixture and stir together. Pour into an ovenproof dish about 20 x 15 cm lined with baking paper.
Put it in the freezer and freeze until the chocolate has set. Cut into sticks. Store in an airtight container in the freezer.
