Description

Dangerously easy to make with endless combinations, these make beautiful holiday gifts or, you know, as they say – treat yo self! Kid Friendly.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 300g chocolate of choice (I used dark chocolate)
  • 2 tsp. extra virgin coconut oil
  • Your choice of fruit, nuts, flowers or other toppings

Instructions

  1. To get the shape of your chocolate bars, you will either need chocolate bar moulds (I used these ones) or you can use a small 6×3 loaf pan. If you don’t have either of these you can also use a larger baking dish and cut into individual bars or pieces.
  2. If using a loaf pan, line the bottom with parchment paper.
  3. To melt the chocolate, fill a small pot with water and place a bowl on top, making sure it doesn’t touch the water. Place your chocolate and coconut oil in the bowl, stirring consistently until melted.
  4. Pour the chocolate into your molds or loaf pan and tap the bottom of the mold/pan on the counter to settle and even out the chocolate. Top each bar with desired topping combos.
  5. Place in the freezer to set for 5 minutes. Remove and run a knife around the edges to loosen the chocolate then leave to set overnight. (Tip: If you are having troubles getting the bars out of the molds when ready, place back in the freezer for 5-10 minutes and they will pop out much easier.
  6. Once set, enjoy immediately or wrap in cellophane bags to store or give away as gifts.
