HomeMade Chocolates *Only 5 ingredients
Great gift for the holidays !!!
Always the same recipe but with a holiday touch !!! 🙂
Ingredients
- 1 cup chopped cocoa butter
- 5 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 pinch sea salt
Instructions
- Add water to a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Then set a medium glass or metal mixing bowl on top, making sure it’s not touching the water (this creates a “double boiler/bain marie”).
- To the mixing bowl, add cocoa butter and let melt.
- Once melted, add the maple syrup and use a whisk to mix until fluid and thoroughly combined. Remove bowl from top of the saucepan and set aside.
- Add cocoa powder, vanilla, and sea salt to the bowl, and whisk to combine until there are no clumps.
- Pour chocolate into 14 mini (I used mini quiche molds) but you may also use chocolate molds or other. Top the chocolates with any topping of your choice, get creative !
- Transfer chocolate to the freezer to set for 10 minutes. Enjoy !
- Store leftovers in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 1 week, or in the freezer up to 1 month.

My new hat
I tried to impress my CAT with my new HAT he gave me a little PAT and went for a NAP 🐾
You have it in you
I’ve always seemed to be more drawn to, as well as more adept at processing numbers, graphs, and math. I never though I was capable of painting, nor drawing.
To explain this further, I have two artist aunts; one very successful on my father’s side that has exposed her art in many venues across Europe, and one on my mother’s side who is just as talented. Seeing their skills and ease of creation made me put it in my mind that I could never be that good, due to the assumption that people always have one side of their brain that is more dominant, mine being the left side.
This all changed when I took an arts class with an amazing teacher who was able to rid me of that insecurity! She made her class interesting by bringing in nude models of all shapes and ages, which actually gave way to my very first drawings. She also encouraged us to undertake any object, image or life form we desired, which led me to begin drawing, portraits, fruits, fauna, and flora, as well.
The image below is of a drawing I created based on a picture of coffee growers in Cuba that I came across in a magazine.
The message here is that you should always go for your dreams, ANY DREAM and not let any pre-thoughts get in the way. We all have amazing potential within us!
