This one here is my v simple bounty recipe from a few weeks back. A perfect little weekend activity and outcome.
Ingredients:
1 cup coconut butter
2 1/2 cup shredded coconut
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup coconut oil
1 tbsp coconut yoghurt or coconut cream (optional)
Double Batch Raw Chocolate
Method:
Soak shredded coconut in water for 20 mins (not essential but this will help soften the coconut and make for a softer filling)
Melt coconut butter, coconut oil, honey over a double boiler.
Drain coconut through sieve and gently squeeze, leaving a little water still in coconut.
Put drained coconut in food processor with melted ingredients.
Add in yoghurt or coco cream, if you have some handy, will create even moister/creamier texture, but not essential!
Blend to combine. I prefer a smoother texture, so blend for 60 seconds until shreds are slightly broken up, can blend for less if prefer more texture.
Press into a lined tray and smooth down the top.
Put in freezer to harden for 15 mins.
Prepare a double batch of our Raw Chocolate Recipe.
Once choc is made, let cool for a few mins, to thicken.
Cut hardened coconut insides into desired shapes (I went for 2 x 5cm-ish blocks).
With a fork gently dip each block into chocolate bowl, coating completely in chocolate and placing on lined tray.
Harden bars in fridge & marvel at the fact you're now a chocolatier!
