This is a great recipe for bite-sized, melt-in-your-mouth chocolates made with hazelnut butter (or almond, or walnut, or peanut), raw cacao nibs, nuts and tangy dried fruit (cranberries, blueberries, or mangoes). Add extra crunch by dusting them with chia seeds! No chocolate mould? No problem! Use empty ice cube trays instead; they're a perfect size and are just as easy to use. To make this recipe even more chocolaty, add 2 cups 70% dark chocolate chunks to the mix and an extra 1/4 cup hazelnut butter.
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup PRANA organic coconut oil
- 2/3 cup PRANA organic blanched almond butter (or hazelnut, walnut or peanut)

1/2 cup PRANA organic raw cacao powder

-
2 tbsp PRANA organic raw cacao nibs
- 1/4 cup mix of PRANA nuts and seeds of your choice (almonds, pecans, hazelnuts, walnuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etc.)

some PRANA dried fruit (cranberries, mangoes, raisins, figs, etc.)

1 tbsp PRANA organic ProactivChia seeds
-
2 cups PRANA organic chocolate chunks, 70% cacao (optional)
Directions
