Immunity Raw Chocolate Delight

🍫 Immunity Raw Chocolate

Having these chocolates on hand as a healthy snack is not only tasty but gives you immune support, through powerful ingredients like cacao, coconut oil, superfoods… namely Medicinal Mushrooms (adaptogens), and of course the incredible On Guard blend!

🌿 Here is the recipe!

– 1 cup (120g) cacao butter
– 1/4 cup (45g) coconut oil
– 1 cup (100g) organic cacao powder
– 1/4 cup (70g) maple syrup
– 4 to 6 drops of On Guard essential oil
– Optional tsp of any superfood (we love medicinal mushroom powder, camu camu or maca)
– Pinch of pink salt

👩‍🍳 How to make it, step by step

1. Set up a double boiler: place 1 to 2 cups of water in a small to medium saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer. Sit a heatproof bowl on top, making sure it doesn’t touch the water.
2. Melt the cacao butter and coconut oil in the bowl, stirring as they melt (or TM heat 50, speed 2, 5 minutes). Never in the microwave!
3. Take the bowl off the heat and add the cacao powder, maple syrup and salt.
4. Mix really well to form a smooth, glossy batter. The longer you mix, the better the chocolate flavour, texture and consistency.
5. Stir through the On Guard and your superfood powder. (Any superfood powder will thicken the mix slightly.)
6. Pour into moulds or onto a greaseproof paper lined tray.
7. Pop it in the fridge for around 20 to 30 minutes to harden. Done!

💪 Why it’s so good for your immunity

– Raw cacao: packed with antioxidants and minerals like magnesium, iron and zinc.
– Coconut oil: contains lauric acid, a natural fat with protective properties.
– On Guard: Wild Orange, Clove, Cinnamon, Eucalyptus and Rosemary, the blend we reach for first when we need support. It’s also delicious… like a spicy Christmas chocolate! 🎄
– Medicinal mushrooms: adaptogens like reishi and chaga have been used for centuries to support immunity and help the body handle stress.
– Camu camu: one of the highest natural sources of vitamin C on the planet.

💡 Keep them in the fridge for up to 2 weeks (or the freezer for longer) so you always have a healthy little hit on hand.
