Healthy Unprocessed Home Made Almond Milk + Healthy Chocolates:Â Raw Cacao Recipes
Here is how to make your own healthy unprocessed almond milk and chocolates that are actually healthy for you!
Healthy Unprocessed Home Made Chocolate Almond Milk:Â Raw Cacao Recipes
Ingredients:
1 cup Raw Almonds
4 cups Water
7 Dates, pitted
2 tbsp Raw Cacao (I use MitoXCell)
1/2 tsp of Vanilla Extract
Directions:
Soak your almonds in water for at least 5 hours. I suggest soaking them over night. Add your soaked almonds to 4 cups of fresh water. Add your pitted dates, raw cacao, and vanilla extract to the blender. Blend for 2 minutes and pour the mixture into a nut milk bag over a large bowl or pitcher. Squeeze to extract all the ‘milk’ and store in the fridge for up to 4 days.

Healthy Chocolates:Â Raw Cacao Recipes
Ingredients:
Candy Molds (if you don’t have one, just line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and add dollops)
Sea Salt
Almonds
2/3 cup Raw Cacao (I use MitoXCell)
3 tbsp Maple Syrup
1/4 cup Coconut Oil
Directions:
Crush walnuts or sprinkle sea salt in the bottom of the candy molds. This will add a nice little flavor once they are complete. In a small bowl, mix the raw cacao, maple syrup, and coconut oil together until combined. Add the chocolate mixture into the molds (or drop on the trays). Then pop them in the freezer for at least an hour, and enjoy!
