Ingredients:
- 2 cups unsweetened, shredded coconut
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
- 3 Tablespoons pure maple syrup, or honey if not vegan
- 1/8 teaspoon Himalaya Pink Sea Salt
- 5 drops pure peppermint oil
- For the chocolate:
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder or raw cacao
- 1 Tablespoon Maple syrup or honey if not vegan
- 1/8 teaspoon sea salt, Himalayan or Celtic
- 1/3 cup melted coconut oil
- 3 drops pure peppermint oil for extra peppermint flavor
Instructions:
- For the hearts: Place the coconut oil, syrup and coconut into a blender and blend until smooth. This takes some patience as you will need to scrape the sides often until well blended.
- Pour the blended coconut into a bowl and add the peppermint drops and salt, stir well.
- Spoon the mixture into candy molds and freeze for at least an hour, until firm.
- Remove the candy from the molds and serve as is, or pour chocolate sauce over them first. The chocolate sauce will harden like magic shell.
- For the chocolate sauce combine all the ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until smooth. Pour over the frozen chocolate hearts…or whatever shape you choose. Enjoy!!!
