Homemade Vegan Chocolate Bars Recipe

By Peanut Palate

Ingredients

1 cup refined coconut oil (not virgin/extra virgin)

½ cup cacao powder

⅛ tsp pink salt

½ tsp vanilla extract

½ cup pure maple syrup

¼ cup roasted pumpkin seeds

¼ cup roasted peanuts chopped

¼ cup pecans chopped

¼ cup almonds chopped

¼ cup cacao nibs

¼ cup goji berries

¼ cup dried cranberries

¼ cup hemp seeds

orange zest optional

Instructions

1Melt the coconut oil in a small saucepan. Then add it to a bowl with the cocoa powder, salt, vanilla, cane sugar, and stir.

2Add in the rest of the ingredients and make sure they are properly incorporated, and then pour into a freezer-safe container lined with wax paper. Alternatively, use a cupcake tray and pour the chocolate into cupcake liners.

3Freeze for 45 minutes, and then cut into squares. Use a sharp knife to get an even cut with all the add-ins. (Freezing these into cupcake liners takes out the issue of having to cut them afterwards too, and makes them easy single servings).

Earth of Maria

I’ve never been good at introductions because when they’re needed, I seem to forget every single interesting thing about myself. But I guess we’ll start with the basics. My name is Maria, and I am a twenty year old student from England. I study history at the University of Oxford and live in Brighton, but I was born in Russia and moved to the UK around ten years ago. I’m a vegan foodie (as you can probably tell by this blog), a lover of long walks and somewhere awkwardly between extrovert and introvert. Veganism and healthy eating are a huge part of my life, given that both have helped me overcome an unhealthy relationship with food. Finding balance took a lot of time and patience. But, as with many things in life, hard work proved 110% worth it! Whenever I’m not in the kitchen or working in my room, you’ll often find me at the gym, or at the grocery store looking for inspo for my next recipe.
