Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 20
INGREDIENTS
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips or chocolate pieces
  • ½ cup virgin coconut oil
  • ½ cup macadamia nuts, chipped
  • ¼ cup unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 10 drops of liquid Vanilla Crème Stevia
METHOD
  1. Measure the macadamia nuts (or your favorite nut) and place in a plastic bag. Use your meat tenderizer to chip the nuts.
  2. Place a glass mixing bowl over a saucepan of simmering water and add chocolate and coconut oil. After it is all melted, remove from the heat.
  3. Add the nuts, coconut flakes and sweetener. As you add the coconut flakes you can crush them with your hand if you don’t want large pieces. Or you could use already shredded coconut. Taste to see if you want to adjust the sweetener.
  4. Mix and pour onto a small parchment lined cookie sheet. I folded the edges of the parchment up to make a “smaller container” so that I wouldn’t have really thin edges.
  5. Place cookie sheet in the freezer to set. Make sure that it is level or the nuts and coconut pieces will shift in the chocolate based on their weight.
  6. Once it has hardened, break into pieces and enjoy!
DK NOTES
You will need to keep this delicious treat in the refrigerator or it will melt.
