Vegan Almond Dark Chocolate

For today’s recipe, we can definitely say that’s the best dessert we made so far! The idea of making our own almond dark chocolate was always in our minds, but somehow we were always more into buying it instead of making it.

This amazing Vegan Almond Dark Chocolate is, in our opinion, the best dessert for all chocolate lovers!Almond Dark Chocolate
The secret in making really great chocolate is in its ingredients! We used organic high-quality ingredients. For reaching a perfectly smooth chocolate texture use powdered coconut sugar. This way you are ensuring that it doesn’t sink to the bottom whilst the chocolate is setting. Coconut sugar is healthier than traditional white sugar, and so far is a better option.
Ingredients for Homemade Chocolate
The process of making chocolate is very simple. Anyone can make it! All you have to do is to melt all the ingredients over a double boiler. When chocolate is set, use a chocolate mold or a parchment paper-lined dish. We don’t have any silicone mold for this purposes, this is why we used a second option.

When it comes to choosing topping ingredients this is where your creativity can pop up. 🙂 We chose roasted almonds. But feel free to use anything you like, maybe mixed nuts and dried fruits. Anything is allowed here. 🙂
