6 Chocolate Chia Mousse I am ever so slightly addicted to this. It is so quick to make, feels incredibly indulgent and its amazing for you! Really low calorie and full of amazing nutrients to fuel you throughout your day. One of the key ingredients is this chia flax seed mix I just have sitting in my fridge everyday. It is the basis of any quick snack and if you add cacao, its super delicious. Chia seed jelly ( place 2 tablespoons of chia seeds and 2 tablespoons of flaxseed in a jar, fill with water and shake. Leave in fridge overnight or until it thickens to a jelly) Organic Raw cacao powder Fresh berries Coconut Cream Crushed Nuts and cacao nibs to sprinkle on top Optional Sweetner if you want coconut jam/ honey/ maple syrup.

7 Chocolate Fruit and Nut Bark A dairy milk version of chocolate that is good for you! Yes its possible. The problem with store bought chocolate is not the chocolate but rather its the sugar and all the other ingredients. If you strip away the crap you are left with actually not much chocolate in most products. So quit buying the chocolate from the store and instead make your own. So delicious and a million times tastier than store bought crap. I made this without sugar as I like to have a little piece after dinner and sugar makes me wired and can t sleep. This batch has no sugar! 1/2 cup Coconut Oil 1/2 cup Organic Raw Cacao Powder 1 tablespoon coconut milk ( add more for more milky chocolate) Fruit and nut mix I used raisins, apricots macadamia nuts chopped up Optional sweetner Honey, coconut jam Construction Instructions 1. Melt coconut oil in a pot on the stove, remove from heat. 2. Add to it cacao and coconut cream. Stir until combined. 3. Chop up nuts and fruit and stir into mix. 4. Line a tray with baking paper and pour mix over it until a thickness you want. I did around 1cm. 5. Cover with another layer of baking paper and place in fridge until set. 6. Break up and stir in containers in fridge or freezer. Page 10 Clean Eating Chocolate Recipes Page 11

8 Raw Chocolate Surprise These are surprising are very simple to make. Full of nutrients and OMG these are so DIVINE!! I can t believe I just said OMG. Trust me, these are a winner that next time you feel like really making something special for yourself or your guests, this should be it. I only made 2 because I wasn t sure how they would turn out. Im glad I only did 2 as well, otherwise they would have been eaten already. Makes 2 large for Crust 1/2 cup dates 1/2 cup almonds 1 tablespoon Coconut Oil 1/4 cup Organic Raw Cacao Powder for centre 1/2 Coconut cream 1/2 Organic Raw Cacao powder To taste add in honey/maple syrup/coconut sugar/coconut jam Construction Instructions 1. In a blender place almonds and dates, blitz it up until all crumbly. Add this to a bowl with coconut oil and combine. 2. Line muffin tin with paper muffin holders, then into a muffin tin press the mixture in to make a crust. Press up the sides to the full height of paper holder. 3. In the blender, place the centre ingredients, blitz it up, then pour into the middle of crust. 4. Make a lid using the crust ingredients, and gently place in top. 5. Place in the fridge until set. I ran out of mix so I made one without a lid. But it is just as good. So if you want to make more, you could make without lid also. Page 12 Clean Eating Chocolate Recipes Page 13

9 Homemade Divine Chocolate I LOVE CHOCOLATE!!! However, most chocolate I buy from the supermarket contains some sort of sugar and it makes me wired! Since I am trying to avoid all sugar at the moment, I tend to react pretty severe. So I decided to make my own chocolate. These were divine!! Very simple to make. 1/4 Cup Organic Raw Cacao Powder 1/4 cup Coconut Cream 1/2 cup Raw Organic Coconut Oil Option Raw Cacao Butter Option Coconut Jam/Honey Option Smedgen of vanilla 1. In a pot melt the coconut oil. 2. Add in the cream and cacao powder and stir. Thats it!!..you can adjust flavours now to suit. If you want it milder add more coconut cream. 3. Pour into some little cupcake holders, or onto a lined dish. Place in fridge to allow to harden and eat. I have got mine in the freezer to make extra hard and stop me eating so much of it. 4. I split the mixture in half, because Ben doesn t like the plain version, so I added some coconut jam to his, and he was in heaven! Better than bought stuff he reckons. 5. Another variation I did was melt some raw cacao butter in a pot and used that as well as the coconut oil. Everything else the same. Created an even nicer version of the chocolate. There are many yummy variations you can do. I put some hazel nuts into some almonds, coconut, orange rind. The list is endless. It is such a simple way to make chocolate. Don t be afraid to just play with quantities and make it according to your taste buds. Page 14 Clean Eating Chocolate Recipes Page 15

10 Gluten Free Hotcross Buns Easter is just around the corner, so I thought I would help you prepare and get ready for the occasion. This is my first attempt at Gluten Free Hotcross Buns and they are actually pretty good. I used coconut flour and tabioca because that s all I had.

Mix together and then using your hands make little buns and place on a tray lined with baking paper. 5. Cook for minutes or until golden. 6. Remove from oven, allow to cool and then drizzle chocolate cross over top. Page 16 Clean Eating Chocolate Recipes Page 17

11 Chocolate Jelly Talk about having flash backs to when I was a kid and loving the chocolate dairy foods. They were such a treat as a kid and tasted so good. I can t believe how close this chocolate jelly tastes to them and how good it is. No dairy and no sugar!! You think im lying ah? Super good for healing the gut. It is made with gelatin which provides all the nutrients to help repair and recover the digestive system. Healing and tastes amazing! 1 tablespoon gelatin 300 mls of water 2 teaspoons organic raw cacao powder 1 tablespoon coconut cream Construction Instructions 1. Melt gelatin in boiling water.. 2. Add cacao, and coconut cream. Stir to combine and pop in fridge. 3.To make thicker you add more gelatin, and to make more chocolaty add more cacao. I personally loved it as is because I am avoiding all sugar at the moment. I made another one for Ben and dissolved some coconut sugar into his and he loved it!

12 Chocolate Macaroons Wow, my first attempt in making some macaroons and holy molly! These are so good! They also freeze well, so you can make a batch up then hide them away for your guests or for those treat days. 3 cups shredded coconut 1/2 cup honey 1/2 cup organic raw cacao powder 1/2 cup coconut milk 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract I used Heilala Vanilla 1 egg white Pinch of seasalt 1. Preheat oven to 160 C/ 320 F. 2. In a bowl combine coconut, honey, cacao, coconut milk, vanilla. Stir through well. 3. Then in another bowl, place egg white and using a whisk, whisk it up until stiff peaks appear. Of course if you have a electric beater this will save you 5 minutes. I don t, it took a good 4-5 minutes with some solid arm whisking. Good exercise! 4. Add the egg whites to the mix. Fold through gently. 5. Using a spoon, divide mixture balls out onto lined baking tray and then press down gently. Make sure you compact each ball as you do this to ensure it is well stuck together. 6. Place in oven for 15 minutes, then turn the tray and cook for another Checking that they aren t burning. 7. Remove and cool on oven rack before eating. Page 20 Clean Eating Chocolate Recipes Page 21

13 Chocolate Coconut Rough Chocolate heaven! I LOVE chocolate!!! However last time I had some it was store bought and I ended up having to cut it out because of my digestive problems and it contained way to much sugar in even a 75% bar. However I have discovered how to make it, and that I can have some every now and then without issues. So here is my first attempt. Watch this space for more homemade chocolate recipes!! Practice makes perfect. Chocolate coconut rough was the first round. 100 grams of coconut oil 30 grams raw cacao powder 1 tablespoon coconut nectar/honey 100 grams of shredded coconut 1. In a pan heat oil and stir in cacao powder and coconut nectar. Keep stirring on a how heat until all dissolved and smooth. 2. Add in shredded coconut and place in fridge or freezer to harden. 3. Once hard, roll into balls and place in fridge to harden. Store in fridge. You can make this more or less of a chocolate by changing the amounts of cacao you add, also you can make sweeter by adding in more honey/nectar. Page 22 Clean Eating Chocolate Recipes Page 23

14 Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies How good do these look! Hot from the oven, chocolate melting. Its enough to make you want to bake them straight away.

In a separate smaller bowl, combine the liquid ingredients. Blend well. 5. Using a table spoon scoop out even amounts of dough and roll into balls. 6. Place them on a lined baking tray. Using your fingers or the back of a fork press down the cookie gently. I made my quite flat, so you choose the shape. 7. Place in hot oven and cook for minutes, keep an eye on them.

16 Banana and Chocolate Cookies Well, this is my first attempt to make banana and chocolate cookies.

May there be plenty more cookies to come! These one which I left in the oven a little too long, so slightly browner than they should have been. Master Chef on TV may have distracted me but still pretty good, if I do say so myself. I do find it amusing that I am watching a cooking show while my cookies are almost burning in the oven. They weren t all burnt after all, just threatening to be. They turned out pretty good. Well Ben tells me they were but he could be biased or too kind to tell me otherwise. So hopefully you like them :) 1/2 cup coconut flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 2 ripe bananas 4 tablespoons coconut oil 2 eggs pinch of salt 1/2 a cup of chopped up quality dark chocolate or chocolate chips 1.

Combine all ingredients in a bowl 4. Use a spoon to make small balls and place on baking tray. Then with a fork press down. 5. I like them quite chunky, so I didn t squash to low. 6. Place in oven and cook for approx 20 minutes or until golden. Page 28 Clean Eating Chocolate Recipes Page 29
