INGREDIENTS
FOR THE CHOCOLATE:
- 1 cup unrefined coconut oil
- 1 cup raw cacao powder
- ½ cup pure maple syrup
- Pinch of unrefined sea salt
FOR THE MORINGA MATCHA CREAM:
- 2/3 cup raw cashews, soaked for 2 hours or longer
- ¼ cup water
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- ¾ teaspoon moringa powder
- ¾ teaspoon matcha
- ½ teaspoon vanilla bean powder
- Pinch of unrefined sea salt
PREPARATION
TO MAKE THE CHOCOLATE:
- If your coconut oil is solid, add it to a small pan and let it melt over low heat.
- Once melted, remove from heat, add cacao powder to the oil and mix well with a spoon until completely dissolved (no clumps remaining). Add maple syrup and sea salt and stir to combine.
- Line a muffin tin with nine muffin cases. Pour liquid chocolate into the cases and fill them up ¼ way through. Transfer to the freezer or refrigerator for 5-10 minutes until the chocolate sets.
TO MAKE THE MORINGA CASHEW CREAM:
- Rinse and drain the soaked cashews. Pour them into the blender with the rest of ingredients and blend until completely silky and smooth.
- Take out the tin, add about 2 teaspoons of the cashew cream in the middle of each cup and fill them up with the remaining liquid chocolate. Add more sea salt on top if desired.
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes until set (or freeze them if you’re short on time). Store leftovers in the refrigerator or freezer.
