Description
Dark chocolate lovers crave this keto chocolate bar recipe that delivers rich, indulgent flavor without sugar. Smooth cocoa blends with creamy ingredients, offering pure satisfaction for health-conscious chocolate enthusiasts who want guilt-free pleasure.
Ingredients
Scale
- 85 g (3 oz) cocoa butter
- 70 g (2.5 oz) unsweetened baking chocolate
- 6 tbsps powdered monk fruit allulose blend
- 2 tbsps inulin
- ¼ tsp liquid sunflower lecithin
- 1/8 tsp sea salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare Double Boiler: Set up a heat-safe glass bowl over a pot of simmering water, ensuring the bowl’s base doesn’t make contact with the water, creating a gentle melting environment.
- Melt Chocolate Base: Combine cocoa butter and baking chocolate in the bowl, stirring with a silicone spatula until fully liquefied and seamlessly blended, maintaining a smooth texture without scorching.
- Sweeten and Stabilize: Gradually whisk monk fruit sweetener into the molten chocolate, then incorporate inulin, sunflower lecithin, and fine sea salt, creating a uniform and glossy mixture that balances flavor and consistency.
- Enhance Flavor Profile: Remove from heat and gently stir in pure vanilla extract, ensuring even distribution and a rich aromatic essence throughout the chocolate base.
- Mold and Set: Pour the liquid chocolate into high-quality silicone molds, tapping gently to eliminate air bubbles, then refrigerate for 30-45 minutes until the chocolate becomes completely firm and develops a lustrous finish.
Notes
- Prevent Scorching: Use low, steady heat and stir frequently to avoid burning chocolate, which can ruin the entire batch’s flavor and texture.
- Sweetener Integration: Add monk fruit powdered sweetener gradually and whisk thoroughly to prevent unwanted clumping and ensure smooth, even distribution.
- Mold Selection Matters: Choose high-quality, non-stick silicone molds with clean edges to guarantee professional-looking chocolate bars and easy removal.
- Cooling Technique: Refrigerate molds gently without sudden temperature changes to achieve a glossy finish and prevent chocolate from developing unsightly white streaks or bloom.
