Raw Homemade Chocolate Bar Recipe

Chocolate has always been one of my favorite things. When I gave up refined sugar and killed my sugar addiction (except for special occasions) a few years ago, I thought chocolate would be off limits. I was so wrong. Chocolate, in it’s adulterated from, is a quality superfood. Cacao is high in protein, antioxidants, and feel-good mood boosting compounds. So now I add unsweetened cacao to my smoothies, oatmeal, chia pudding, and more. Most conventional chocolates from the grocery store are so processed and filled with sugar that the benefits of cacao are diminished. So let’s make our own superfood chocolate! The first time I tried making homemade raw vegan chocolate, I poured the melted chocolate into silicon molds, but they just didn’t come out nicely. Pouring drops onto a sheet of waxed paper worked perfectly and I imagine pouring into a single layer, letting harden, and then breaking into a “bark” would work well too.

For the happiest life, days should be rigorously planned, nights left open to chance
