Sweet Carob Hearts

Ingredients:

3/4 cup organic carob powder (see picture for the one I love & recommend)

3/4 cup organic coconut oil (I use the one in the picture when I don’t want too much coconut flavour)

Optional 1/4 cup (or less) maple syrup or raw honey

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

1 pinch of sea salt

1/2 tsp of organic monk fruit (optional) * don’t use if you use honey or maple syrup as your hearts will be sweet enough

Ice cube trays or chocolate moulds

Instructions:

If necessary (if it's cooler than 23 degrees C in your home) melt mixture in the microwave for about 30-60 seconds. The stove top would work too.

In a small bowl mix, or in your thermomix gently blend all ingredients together until the mixture is an even consistency.

Pour mixture or spoon (this mix tends to set quickly so you need to move relatively fast) in an ice cube trays or chocolate moulds and place in the fridge or freezer.

Your Carob hearts will be ready in about 30- 60 minutes.

Store in the freezer in a freezer a Ziploc bag. Place at the back of your freezer or each time you open your freezer these little delights will entice you to eat them!
