Chocolate Chips
Ingredients:
1 cup virgin coconut oil
1 cup cocoa
1 T pure vanilla extract
1 T cinnamon
1/2 cup stevia
Ingredient Options:
Instead of stevia, use brown coconut palm sugar.
Make the flavors suit your taste by experimenting with
different amounts of the vanilla, cinnamon and stevia.
Directions:
Melt the coconut oil on lowest heat possible. Stir in cocoa,
vanilla, cinnamon, and stevia.
Line large baking pans with saran wrap; pour in thin layer
of the melted mixture. Freeze.
After the chocolate is solidly frozen, store in the freezer
inside zip lock bag.
Chop “chips” as needed.
Poured into a very thin layer and it makes a yummy chocolate
bar.
Hope people enjoy these chips! They are a staple of cookies and pancakes (and secret snacking) at our house, and they are safe for my daughter who has hyperpermeable gut which results in anaphylaxis, so chemicals and processed sugar are a real no-no for us.
