As you’ll see, virgin coconut oil serves as the base of this healthy chocolate bar. That’s one of the reasons it’s so good for you! Coconut oil is the healthiest oil with the most benefits you can use in your kitchen. Coconut oil can even help you lose weight, believe it or not!
This recipe is the latest version of my original healthy chocolate recipe, which you'll find here, along with other chocolate making tips and the little story of why I came up with the recipe in the first place.
This recipe is absolutely the most versatile recipe I’ve ever used! You can use more coconut oil, or less; more cocoa, or less; more sugar, or less… well, you get the idea. I’m now using more coconut oil, less cocoa, and less coconut than when I started experimenting. The proportions I’m currently using are reflected in the recipe below.
