5 Ingredient Home Made Chocolate

What if I told you, you can have insanely rich, intense, decadent chocolate, all that’s needed are 5 ingredients. And it takes only 15 minutes to make.

Here’s all you need to make this chocolate:
Cocoa butter
Cacao powder
Coconut nectar (you can use Agave or Honey too)
Vanilla extract
Salt

The chocolate flavor is really intense, because of the cacao powder. I strongly recommend using raw cacao powder in lieu of Cocoa powder, its processed counterpart, which I find dulls the taste.I’ve made chocolates for friends on their birthdays as gifts with this recipe – and they’re always shocked when I tell them it’s dairy free! Just look at how gorgeous they look, I used an edible gold paint from Michael’s to make it look fancy. I can’t paint for the life of me, I, umm, spilt half the bottle on me while making these. I’m definitely more of a Picasso than a Michelangelo, is what I’m saying. Go on and unleash your inner artist with these!

You can also use silicone chocolate molds or paper molds. I found these, and it gives a really lovely artisanal look. Here’s a handy link to paper molds.

So kick back & relax while noshing on this amazing chocolate, I’d love to see your pictures if you make this recipe, tag it with #findmymojyo on Instagram. Looking for Mojo? This chocolate, literally, has it written all over it.
