Homemade Low Sugar Chocolate (Dairy Free!)
Today I'm sharing how easy it is to make homemade dairy free low sugar chocolate. We're naturally sweetening our vegan chocolate with maple syrup. You control the amount of sweetener that's added in which means you can reduce the sweetener even more, or add more to your liking! No matter what, you'll love this simple homemade chocolate to enjoy whenever the chocolate craving strikes!
Ingredients
- 1 cup cacoa butter
- 2-4 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/8 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- You'll begin making your chocolate by melting the cacao butter fully. You can either do this over a double boiler on the stove top, or by heating in the microwave in a heat safe bowl for 30 second increments until the cacao butter is melted.
- Once the cacao butter is fully melted, whisk in the maple syrup, cocoa powder, vanilla extract and sea salt.
- Carefully pour the melted chocolate in mini cupcake paper liners, about half way full. You will end up with around 24 mini chocolate cups. The number may vary depending on how full you fill them or if you use a different size.
- Chill in the fridge until set.
