Easy Homemade Chocolate recipe with just 3 ingredients - Cocoa powder, coconut oil and honey ! U may wonder by seeing this title .I too felt the same when i saw this super easy recipe here. U won’t believe if I say I had been attempting to make a perfect homemade chocolate recipe for the past 3-4 months in different combinations using stove top as well as microwave methods. Yes,its all for some of my reader’s request & to make my dream post come true. And yay! my dream came true finally !. Actually I was trying to make basic homemade chocolate using one string sugar syrup. But I felt the taste was more like a chocolate burfi . So I worked on it by changing the ratio of ingredients to make it a real chocolate and posted the recipe HERE !
Coming to this post, this chocolate recipe needs only 3 ingredients which are readily available in all our pantries and the highlight is its completely dairy free, vegan, no sugar, no sieving, no boiling and no microwaving too. Just mix, pour, freeze and viola!! Your chocolate is ready. Cool right??. Its a great recipe for beginners & even your kids can make it. I won’t say it tastes like melt in mouth Dairy milk. chocolate. But It tasted similar to dark chocolate with slight bitterness & coconut-ty flavor. Please don’t try this recipe if u don’t like coconut oil flavour. There are very less chances for this recipe to go wrong. Don’t worry if you don’t have chocolate moulds. U can use mini muffin pans or some ice trays lined with parchment paper. I bought these moulds from Nilgiris, Jayanagar - Bangalore.
Keep this recipe as a base, run your imaginations and come up with different flavours on your own. I added few chopped nuts in some pieces & it was good to have the crunchy taste while eating. But remember this chocolate will melt & becomes soft soon after you remove from the freezer.So consume it immediately. It tastes great even if it melts, just go on & lick the melting chocolate. Friends, just rush into your kitchen and make these cuties.Surprise ur kids & sweetheart while they come back home in the evening. All you need is just 1 hour freezing time.All the best !!

INGREDIENTS
- Coconut oil - 1/4 cup ( in liquid form at room temp)
- Cocoa powder - 1/4 cup
- Honey or maple syrup - 2- 3 tbsp
- Salt - a dash
- **Peanut butter – 1 tsp (to suppress coconut oil flavor,optional)
HOW TO MAKE CHOCOLATE AT HOME
- Keep all the ingredients ready. Coconut oil should be in liquid form.not frozen. In a bowl, mix all the 3 ingredients adding a dash of salt. Mix well with a whisk. Make sure there are no lumps. Mix it well for a minute.( you can add a tsp of peanut butter to suppress the smell of coconut oil, I din’t do this step)
- The mixture would be runny while you pour into the moulds. That’s just right. It should not be thick.
- Pour into chocolate mould or a small muffin liner lined with parchment paper. No need to line if you use chocolate mould. U can use wider bowls too but it takes longer time to set.
- Cover the mould or bowl with a cling wrap or polythene sheet. It helps to prevent ice formation on top of chocolate. Freeze it for an hour and Viola, Ur chocolate is ready. After an hour, remove the mould and gently tap it. Chocolates will come out easily !
Consume immediately because it may melt in your hand !
Note
- Most important thing is coconut oil should be in melted form. If your oil is frozen, heat it slightly, cool down and bring it to room temperature. Then you can mix with other ingredients. If you don’t follow this step, this chocolate will become a super flop.
- Also while mixing, there should not be any lumps at all. The mixture would be runny while you pour into the moulds. That’s just right. It should not be thick.
- Adjust the quantity of honey as per your taste buds. I used nearly 2.5 tbsp. Taste the mixture in between and check for taste before you pour them in moulds.
- These chocolates have slight coconut oil smell while eating. If you don’t like them, add 1 tsp of peanut butter when you try it next time. Do not add too much. But I don't think oil flavour would be suppressed ;).I think you can add some vanilla essence or chocolate essence to remove the smell. Hope it woks !
- For variations, you can add chopped nuts in the bottom of mould and pour the chocolate mixture over it.
- Please do not substitute coconut oil with butter or any other oil. It won’t work.
- If you want to use other sweeteners,u can go for powder stevia ( I don’t think you get this in India).
- I got around 10 small pieces using chocolate mould. If you use mini muffin pans, you may need to use one pan with 12 mini muffins.
- I got one more recipe from the comments section. People in abroad can try this too. Mix equal parts of coconut oil, raw cocoa, a little liquid chocolate stevia & mix it up. Pour them in mini muffin cups. U can sprinkle unsweetened coconut or add a teeny dollop of almond butter or chopped nuts.( Source : TONYA BALLEW in comments section).
- I also tried adding melted butter and coconut oil in equal quantity to reduce coconut oil flavor. But it was stuck to the mould and it was difficult to remove. So I guess this recipe works the best with coconut oil.
