Raw Walnut Chocolate


Roasted Walnut Chocolate

This recipe is from http://www.theearthdiet.org/june-2014/roasted-walnut-chocolate and altered to make it raw.

Serves: 5ish or more, it's a decent sized batch

Ingredients:
2 cups soaked and dehydrated walnuts and a handful extra (these will stay whole)
1/2 cup melted cacao butter
1/2 cup coconut oil
6 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
5 tablespoons raw cacao powder
Pinch of salt

Directions:
1.  Soak the walnuts in filtered water with a teaspoon of salt. Drain and rinse the walnuts. Add walnuts to a dehydrator sheet  and dehydrate at 105. Should take several hours. Taste test one before you take them out. You'll know when they're ready, they taste amazing and different than raw walnuts.
2. Once walnuts are dehydrated, put the 2 cups through the food processor until they form a fluffy meal. Leave the other handful on the side as whole walnuts. These will go in the chocolate at the end.
3. After the food processor creates the nut meal, add other ingredients and process until liquid smooth.
4. Set a flat sheet down with parchment paper and pour the chocolate liquid onto the sheet and spread it evenly.
5. Put the extra roasted walnuts on top and put the full sheet in the freezer.
6. Let it sit for at least an hour until chocolate hardens then cut into squares and enjoy!
