How To Make Chocolate With Three Ingredients

  • Place the coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl and heat it in the microwave until it becomes completely liquid. This usually takes about 30 seconds to 1 minute, depending on the microwave's power.
  • Once the coconut oil is melted, add the cocoa powder and honey (or maple syrup) to the bowl. Make sure to use unsweetened cocoa powder for the best flavour.
  • Use a whisk or spoon to mix the ingredients together until they form a smooth and glossy chocolate mixture. Ensure that there are no lumps of cocoa powder remaining.
  • Taste the chocolate mixture and adjust the sweetness according to your preference. If you prefer sweeter chocolate, add more honey or maple syrup and mix well until fully incorporated.
  • Pour the chocolate mixture into chocolate moulds or onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Spread it out evenly with a spatula if using a baking sheet.
  • Tap the moulds gently on the counter to remove any air bubbles and to smooth out the surface of the chocolate.
  • Place the moulds or baking sheet in the refrigerator and chill the chocolate for at least 1-2 hours, or until it becomes firm and solid.
  • Once the chocolate has set, remove it from the moulds by gently pressing on the back of the mould. If using a baking sheet, break the chocolate into pieces using your hands or a knife.
  • Your homemade chocolate is now ready to enjoy! Eat it as is, or use it in your favorite recipes, such as chocolate-covered strawberries or homemade truffles.

Feel free to customisue your chocolate by adding nuts, dried fruits, or spices like cinnamon or sea salt to the mixture before pouring it into the moulds. Experiment with different variations to find your perfect combination!
