Handmade Vegan Chocolates

These are really easy to make and actually pretty healthy! They stay nice and firm at room temperature and would make a great gift for any vegan (or, for that matter non-vegan) friends. This recipe fills about two ice cube trays worth of moulds, but obviously the number you get will depend on the sixe of your moulds.

Ingredients:
50g organic cocoa butter
50g virgin coconut oil
2-3 tbsp raw cacao powder (or cocoa powder)
2 tbps icing sugar (adjust this to your own taste)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
a few drops of orange essential oil (optional)

Simply add the cocoa butter to the coconut oil in a small bowl over a double boiler (I use a small milk pan). When it is melted stir in your other ingredients until it is smooth and there are no lumps, then spoon into moulds. Pop the moulds in the freezer for half an hour or so and voila! Handmade chocolates. They are very rich so you can't eat too many (which in my case is a bonus!).
