Easy Homemade Carob chocolate (Sugar/Dairy-Free)
- 12 cup carob powder (roasted, not raw)
- 12 cup coconut oil, melted
- Sift carob powder into a medium bowl.
- (To 'melt' coconut oil, place sealed jar in a metal/glass bowl partially filled with boiling water for 10-15 minutes).
- Slowly stir in melted coconut oil, taking care to break up any lumps as you mix ingredients together.
- Spread mixture thinly on a flat surface lined with foil or parchment (I used foil) and allow to cool in fridge.
- Alternatively, you can drizzle into shapes or set the mixture in chocolate moulds.
- (For a faster result, put in freezer for 15 minutes).
- Once set, chop or break carob block into smaller pieces.
- Store in a fridge or a cool place until ready to use.
- Note: Cooking time is time allowed for mixture to set in fridge.
- I read one suggestion that these could be used as chips in baked goods (e.g.
- cookies) but I'm a little sceptical and think this might require some experimentation.
- Try waiting until baked goods have cooled so that the chips harden up again?
