The herd escaped into the backyard. They love to be anywhere 'new'. They can't stay near the gardens though, as they have very sensitive digestive systems.

How to Make Chocolate at home with Coconut Oil

2012-12-23T10:35:00.002-05:00

This will lower cholesterol and if you use xylitol instead of sugar, it is even more healthy http://www.naturalhealthstrategies.com/how-to-make-chocolate.html

How to Make Chocolate: The Basic Ingredients

5 tablespoons of virgin coconut oil
5 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder
5 tablespoons of finely grated coconut
1 to 2 tablespoons of sugar (see notes below)
1 pinch of salt

Optional Ingredients

If you have natural vanilla extract, a few drops are a wonderful addition.
a pinch of powdered cayenne pepper
whole, chopped, or ground walnuts, almonds, Brazil nuts, cashews, hazelnuts, sunflower seeds, etc.
fresh mint
raisins or other chopped dried fruit

Melt coconut over low heat. (Coconut oil is liquid at 76 degrees) and add cocoa. Stir until blended, add xylitol (I make mine into fine powder with my spice grinder), and stir until thoroughly mixed. Add other chosen ingrdients. Put into molds, or just pour into brownie pan. Freeze. When well chilled, turn over and thump the bottom of the pan to remove. Cut into pieces, store in freezer. Snack on it!
