Equipment

  • Small Saucepan

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup refined coconut oil (not virgin/extra virgin)
  • ½ cup cacao powder
  • ⅛ tsp pink salt
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract 
  • ½ cup pure maple syrup
  • ¼ cup roasted pumpkin seeds
  • ¼ cup roasted peanuts chopped
  • ¼ cup pecans chopped
  • ¼ cup almonds chopped
  • ¼ cup cacao nibs 
  • ¼ cup goji berries
  • ¼ cup dried cranberries
  • ¼ cup hemp seeds
  • orange zest optional

Instructions
 

  • Melt the coconut oil in a small saucepan. Then add it to a bowl with the cocoa powder, salt, vanilla, cane sugar, and stir.
  • Add in the rest of the ingredients and make sure they are properly incorporated, and then pour into a freezer-safe container lined with wax paper. Alternatively, use a cupcake tray and pour the chocolate mixture into cupcake liners.
  • Freeze for 45 minutes, and then cut into squares. Use a sharp knife to get an even cut with all the add-ins. (Freezing these into cupcake liners takes out the issue of having to cut them afterwards too, and makes them easy single servings).
