Chocolate Raspberry Treat made with Coconut Oil

Are you in the mood for a chocolate treat & want to eat some AMAZING coconut oil in the process?  Try the recipe below!
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup cocoa (Or even better cacao)
  • 2 TBS honey (Or sweetener of choice.  I personally love honey the best but another favorite is coconut palm sugar or pure maple syrup.  For those on candida clear use xylitol.)
  • Optional: A couple handfuls of raspberries (This really should be mandatory because it tasted so good.)
Mix everything together.  You can leave the raspberries in whole or mash them up like I did so they blend in better.

Put your mixture in the freezer for about 3 to 5 minutes for a fudge like texture or 10 to 15 minutes for a hard chocolate bar like texture.  (NOTE: Coconut oil changes from a solid state to liquid around 76 degrees.  To make it liquid you can warm it up or it may already be in that form like mine because my house is much warmer in the summer.  You can also make it really solid by putting it in the freezer for 15 minutes or more.  You get the 'softened' texture by not leaving it in the freezer to completely harden up.)

Tips: It's not easy to eat out of a bowl when you keep it in the freezer for 15 minutes but best when it has only been in there for 5 minutes or so.  You can also make this mixture and put in a muffin tins with liners.  Then when it freezes it is in a nice single serving formation and easy to eat!  Enjoy!
