Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Mixture
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ¼ cup coconut oil, melted
- 3 tablespoons erythritol (or preferred sweetener)
- ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the Chocolate Mixture: In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the cocoa powder, melted coconut oil, and erythritol. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and fully blended, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Add the Almond Milk: Stir in the unsweetened almond milk and vanilla extract. Continue mixing gently until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, allowing all ingredients to incorporate evenly.
- Pour and Set: Pour the chocolate mixture into silicone molds to create individual pieces or spread it evenly onto parchment paper for a flat chocolate sheet, depending on your preferred shape.
- Refrigerate: Place the molds or parchment paper in the refrigerator and let the chocolate chill for about 30 minutes until it is fully set and firm to the touch.
- Break into Pieces: Once the chocolate has set, remove it from the molds if used, or break the flat chocolate sheet into bite-sized pieces.
- Enjoy: Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for a deliciously smooth and creamy keto-friendly chocolate treat anytime.
Notes
- Use silicone molds for neat chocolate shapes, or parchment paper for easy cleanup and a rustic chocolate slab.
- You can adjust the sweetness by increasing or decreasing the erythritol, or substitute with your preferred keto-friendly sweetener.
- Make sure to melt the coconut oil gently to avoid burning and maintain a smooth chocolate texture.
- Store the chocolates in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep them firm and fresh for up to two weeks.
- For a nut-free option, substitute almond milk with unsweetened coconut milk or another preferred dairy-free milk.
