Yield: makes 3 chocolate bars

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup coconut oil (or cacao butter)
• 2/3 cup cacao powder
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pinch sea salt
• 1/4 cup finely ground coconut sugar
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup
• 1/3 cup dried cranberries
• 1/2 cup trail mix (I like this one)
• 1 tablespoon Harmonic Arts’ Activate Superfood Upgrade

Instructions

1. In a small, heavy-bottomed pot, melt the coconut oil and whisk in the cacao, vanilla, salt, sweeteners and Activate Superfood Upgrade until smooth and delicious. (If it’s too thick, add a lil more coconut oil, or throw the mixture into a blender and add a lil almond milk.)
2. Stir in the cranberries.
3. Pour into chocolate molds or onto a plate lined with parchment paper.
4. Sprinkle on the trail mix and put the chocolate in the freezer for at least 20 minutes or until it hardens. Keep in the fridge. Enjoy!
