So I’m sitting here with a napping toddler writing some recipe substitution tips when it hits me: I could really use a bite of dark chocolate, and I don’t have any, I don’t have any chocolate chips, and I can’t run to the store. Serious Emergency!
But I have cocoa… and coconut oil… and maple syrup… and another wackadoodle recipe is born chez Reilly:
Emergency Dark Chocolate
Serves 10
1/2 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
3 tbsp liquid sweetener (maple syrup, agave…)
1/4 cup flax seeds, hemp seeds, or other seeds/ chopped nuts (optional)
In a saucepan over medium heat, heat oil, cocoa, and sweetener. Remove from heat and stir in seeds or chopped nuts if using. Pour into dish and spread thin. Chill in fridge for 1 hour.
What do YOU do in this kind of emergency situation? xo
Thank you for the recipe! I have inspiration to try it 🙂
