Peanut Butter Chocolate Truffle Chunks

I have an obsession with the combination of chocolate and peanut butter and sweet/salty. Sometimes I look around my pantry and just start trying to bake something new with what ingredients I have on hand. I ended up making homemade chocolate the other day. IT IS SOOOOO GOOD!!! I don’t know why I do this to myself, I make delicious food and don’t know what to do with it so what do I usually end up doing…eating it all myself! Here is the recipe, you will love me for it. Again, it is all healthy ingredients (when eaten in moderation) since you never know what goes into food when it is getting processed. Even better, these are dairy and soy free! It has the texture of a truffle, smooth and creamy…yummmm.

Servings: 20
Prep/Total Time: 50 minutes 

Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup coconut oil
• 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 6 Tbsp raw honey

Directions:

1. Using a double boiler or a glass bowl over a pot of simmering water, melt the coconut oil until there are no clumps.
2. Turn off the heat and slowly whisk in the cocoa powder and remaining ingredients.
3. Pour into a wax paper covered pan (I used a pie pan) and refrigerate for at least 45 minutes before cutting into small 1/2 inch pieces, makes about 40.
4. Top with light sprinkling of pink Himalayan sea salt if so desired.
