Preparation time: 15 minutes
Servings: 25

2 cups virgin coconut oil, softened

1 cup organic cocoa powder

Prepare all ingredients before mixing together.

In the bowl of a standing mixer stir coconut oil until creamy with no lumps (if oil is too thick set bowl in warm water). Add nuts, cocoa powder and sweetener, mixing after each ingredient. Mix the dried fruit in.

Chocolate Coconut Satin

Posted At : August 14, 2009 9:38 AM

This could be served as a delicious pudding, or as a frosting, or as a dip for your fruit such as strawberries, bananas, sweet cherries or pineapple. The uses are endless with your imagination. Enjoy!

1 large or 2 small avocados
1/2 - 3/4 cups honey (warmed slightly)
1/4 cup cocoa powder
2 tablespoons Coconut Cream Concentrate
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Dash of salt
Toasted coconut for garnish, optional

Place everything except toasted coconut in a high-power blender or food processor and blend (on high) until very smooth. You will need to stop and stir frequently until mixture is satin-y smooth and well blended.

Serve topped with toasted coconut if desired.

Keep stored in an airtight container in the fridge - that is if it makes it to the fridge.
