Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 50 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 75 grams coconut oil
- 30 grams erythritol sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 50 grams almond butter
- 1 pinch sea salt
Instructions
Begin by melting the coconut oil in a small saucepan over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the unsweetened cocoa powder and erythritol sweetener. Stir until evenly mixed.
Add the melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt to the cocoa powder and erythritol mixture. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Line a mini muffin tin or a small egg-shaped silicone mold with paper liners or ensure they are well greased for easy removal.
Pour a small amount of the chocolate mixture into the bottom of each mold, about a third of the way full.
Place a small dollop of almond butter into the center of each mold, using approximately one teaspoon per chocolate.
Fill the molds with the remaining chocolate mixture until they are completely covered, ensuring the almond butter is encased in chocolate.
Gently tap the tray or mold on the counter to remove any air bubbles and smooth the tops.
Place the mold in the freezer for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate eggs are completely set.
Once set, remove the chocolate eggs from the mold. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Enjoy your low carb treat!
