Choco-Coco-Brazil Nut Butter...

...is as amazing as it sounds!


So simple to make too!

Chocolate-Coconut-Brazil Nut Butter
  • 200g desiccated coconut
  • 75g brazil nuts
  • 50g dark chocolate, melted
I first blitzed the coconut in my food processor until liquidy. This did take quite a long time - half an hour in my food processor, with stops to stir after 15, 20 and 25 minutes. I then added the brazil nuts and processed for another 10 minutes until it was a liquid consistency, albeit not quite smooth due to the coconut. Mine looked like this...


I finally added the melted chocolate and quickly processed to combine, before pouring into jars. It filled the jar below, plus a little bit extra and a few spoonfuls along the way!


Yum! I put the jars in the fridge overnight and it has set super hard! It is still absolutely delicious, I love the solid chocolate with flecks of coconut through it. I think I might leave it at room-temperature now so that I can eat it by the spoonful use it to dip apples into!

Right, must go. Off to circuits now. Not before having the perfect pre-exercise snack though - medjool dates stuffed with home made choco-coco-brazil nut butter? Don't mind if I do!
