Make dairy-free chocolate bars at home

If you’re looking for a delicious, dairy-free dessert, homemade chocolate bars are the perfect choice. In this article, we will take you step by step on how to make this delicious dessert, using simple ingredients and easy to prepare. Let’s start this delicious journey.

Basic components

Before starting the preparation process, let’s take a look at the basic ingredients we will be using. This recipe is special because it relies on cocoa butter instead of traditional butter and cream, making it durable and less likely to melt.

Required components

  • Grated cocoa butter
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder
  • Sugar substitute (equivalent to one cup of regular sugar)
  • A pinch of salt
  • Creamy peanut butter -Vanilla extract
  • Chopped roasted nuts (optional)

Preparing cocoa butter

Grate cocoa butter

Instead of using a knife to cut the cocoa butter, it is better to use a slicer to get thin slices that melt quickly and easily. You’ll need enough to make about a cup.

Melt the cocoa butter

Add the grated cocoa butter to a small saucepan over low heat. Stir gently with a spoon until the cocoa butter is completely melted. Avoid large pieces of cocoa butter as they take longer to melt.

Mix the ingredients

Add cocoa powder and sugar substitute

Once the cocoa butter is completely melted, add the unsweetened cocoa powder and stir until completely combined. Use a sugar substitute equivalent to one cup of regular sugar. Also add a pinch of salt to improve the flavour.

Add peanut butter and vanilla extract

Turn off the heat and add the creamy peanut butter. Stir until the peanut butter is completely mixed with the mixture. Finally, add a little vanilla extract and stir the mixture one last time.

Forming chocolate bars

Pour the mixture into the prepared dish

Pour the chocolate into a plate lined with parchment paper. You can use silicone candy molds to enhance the presentation, but using a regular dish works well too. Tilt the plate to distribute the chocolate evenly.

Add nuts

To add extra flavor and texture, sprinkle chopped toasted nuts over the chocolate. You can use roasted almonds, macadamia nuts, and dry roasted peanuts. Place the nuts in separate sections on the surface of the chocolate for more variety in flavors.

Freeze the pieces and prepare them to enjoy

Preparing chocolate for freezing

Let the chocolate rest until it reaches room temperature, then place it in the refrigerator for at least an hour to freeze and solidify well.

Cut the chocolate into pieces

After the chocolate has cooled, take it out of the refrigerator and from the lined plate. Using a sharp knife, divide it into thirds or smaller pieces, as desired. It is best to store these pieces in the refrigerator to maintain their texture and flavour.
