Ingredients
- 1/3 cup coconut oil (measured when solid but soft)
- 3/4 cup raw cacao powder
- 1/4-1/3 cup real maple syrup
- 2 tbsp freshly squeezed orange juice
- Orange zest from 1 orange or 2 clementines
- 1/2 cup chopped hazelnuts
Instructions
- Cover a baking sheet or dish with parchment paper.
- Melt coconut oil in a pot on low heat. Add raw cacao powder and maple syrup, stir. Add orange juice. When fully combined, remove from heat. Be careful to not burn chocolate.
- While doing that, roast hazelnuts, set oven to 350F. Place chopped nuts on a baking sheet. Bake for 5-10 minutes or until toasted and crunchy. Watch carefully to ensure they do not burn.
- Pour chocolate mixture on to parchment paper. It should be liquid and very easy to spread.
- Sprinkle with hazelnuts and orange rind.
- Place in the freezer for a couple of hours until solid or refrigerator overnight.
