MAKES 8 bombs (1 per serving)
PREP TIME: 5 minutes
CHILL TIME: 15 to 30 minutes
Ingredients
• ½ cup / 125 g smooth unsweetened nut or seed butter
• ⅓ cup / 75 g melted coconut oil, cacao butter, or ghee
• 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
• 3 drops liquid stevia, or 3 teaspoons erythritol
Instructions
1. In a medium bowl, combine the nut/seed butter, melted coconut oil, cocoa powder, and liquid stevia. Whisk until the mixture is completely smooth and glossy.
2. Carefully pour or spoon the mixture evenly into 8 cavities of a silicone mold. Alternatively, pour it into a small parchment-lined baking pan to create a bark.
3. Transfer the mold or pan to the refrigerator to set until firm, about 15 minutes for cacao butter or 30 minutes for coconut oil/ghee. If you made a bark, break it into 8 equal pieces before serving.
