HomeMade Chocolate Chips

 Make your own Homemade Chocolate Chips | Carob Chips Recipe
Makes about 3 cups chips / chunks.

Ingredients

1 cup cocoa butter, palm shortening, or palm oil
1 cup cocoa or carob powder
1/4 cup sweetener, as healthy as possible.
Use raw honey, stevia, maple syrup ect.
( if using stevia: 2 scoops stevia extract powder. Note: 1 scoop = 1/32 tsp. These spoons will help you measure exactly what you need.)
1/2 tsp chocolate extract (optional but extra yummy.)
1/2 Tbsp granulated instant coffee or coffee substitute (optional, but extra nice)
1 t vanilla extract

Method

1. Melt oil over very low heat in a medium pan.

2. Transfer oil to a medium bowl.

3. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. I have used my Bamix immersion blender with great success. You could also put the mixture in a blender, but it will be messier to deal with .

4. Pour mixture into an 8×8 baking pan (other pans will work as well, but your chunks will be thinner or thicker, depending on the size you use.)

5. Chill in fridge or freezer.

6. Use a knife or spatula to break large pieces out of the pan. Chop on cutting board to desired size with a sharp knife.
