How to Prepare Raw Chocolate Gift Box [Vegan]

  1. Place a bowl over a pan of hot water (don't let the bottom of the bowl touch the water).
  2. Cover with a cloth and let the cacao butter melt in that bowl; the whole process will take 7 or 8 minutes at most.
  3. Whisk the agave nectar, cacao powder and lucuma powder into the melted cacao butter.
  4. Spoon the melted chocolate into 5 medium-sized moulds (about an inch in diameter).
  5. Refrigerate for at least an hour. If you wish to add more flavour to your chocolates you can add 2 tsp whiskey (which isn't raw, but it's still scrumptious), 2 tsp maca powder, ground cinnamon or other spices. You will need to alter the liquid to solid ingredients ratio accordingly but I assure you it's very hard to go wrong with this. * The lucuma powder adds the 'snap' to the chocolate but isn't totally necessary.
