Paleo Chocolate!

Paleo-ista baby!

I am on a new Paleo life style change. totally, not easy. The first week it sucks. You get chocolate deprived and everything tastes like cardboard.

I say, no more!

Okay i say more. :)
Mom and i (she and i are doing it together.) (hey... healthy makes happy right?) found a chocolate recipe that tastes... good. Suprisingly. WE made zukinni spagetti... that smelled horrible! But tasted good.
Here is the recipe! (for the chocolate!)

4 oz. dark chocolate,

1 C. Coconut oil.  (make sure its extra-virgin and unrefined... important for this recipe.)

1 handful of coconut flakes

1 handful silver almonds (and or pecans. Both are really good.)

1/2 tsp. seas salt (the salt is optional. sometimes it tastes like to way much salt, other times it doesn't. salt varies in this recipe)

Fill a pot with a few inches of water. balance a smaller pot on top so it hovers over the water. bring water to a simmer. Break chocolate into pieces and melt it into the top pot. Take the melted chocolate off of the heat, stir in the coconut oil until it melts. add coconut flakes and almonds. 
Por into an 8*8 pa, lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle salt on top.
Put in freezer until hard. or break with your hands.

When cold, munch away!
