This is a simple, easy, no-fuss method using 3 ingredients without tempering. As long as you refrigerate or freeze them immediately and eat straight from the fridge or freezer, it's totally fine. Of course, with tempering, the chocolate will have a nice glossy look with a good snap and can be kept at room temperature of 13 to 15C or 55 to 60F. The other tricky part is that we have to temper the chocolate at a room temperature of 18C or 64F with low humidity and where I live, the weather is hot and humid which makes it impossible to temper chocolates. Hence, I can only show you this easy and simple method.
The beauty of making our own chocolate is that we can add any flavors, fillings and level of sweetness based on our preferred liking. And wrapping them up individually for single servings and store in the fridge or freezer is so convenient for when that craving kicks in or as a treat.

[Total Servings = 13 @ 25 g each]
NUTRITION INFO PER SERVING
Total Carb = 3.7 g
Dietary Fiber = 1.9 g
Net Carb = 1.8 g
Calories = 114
Total Fat = 10.5 g
Protein = 1.9 g
INGREDIENTS
Coconut Oil = 120 ml / 1/2 cup
(Note: You can also use cocoa butter or butter. Homemade chocolates made with coconut oil tend to melt more quickly than those made with cocoa butter. If you need to travel with the chocolates, then you will need to use cocoa butter so that they can stay firm for much longer. However, cocoa butter is expensive so if you do not need to travel with the chocolate, then it is much cheaper to use coconut oil or butter. I believe that most of us would consume these chocolates at home so using coconut oil or butter is way more economical as they can be kept in the refrigerator or freezer. Also, wrapping them with chocolate wrappers will ensure mess free eating.)
Unsweetened cocoa powder = 120 g / 1 cup
Allulose = 100 g / 1/2 cup (Sugar or sweetener can melt with water but not oil so it's best to grind the sweetener to as fine as possible. Allulose is highly recommended as it does not crystallize when chilled. You can also use erythritol or monk fruit but it's best to use the powdered form.)
NOTE
1. You can choose to add any of your favorite ingredients such as roasted nuts, unsweetened dried fruits, coconut flakes, sea salt, red chili flakes etc.
2. You can choose to add any of your favorite flavors such as vanilla, mint, coffee etc.
3. You can use any silicone molds which you can purchase online. Alternatively, you can use ice cube trays or any mini cake silicone molds.
DIRECTIONS
1. Prepare the silicone molds, fillings and flavors you intend to use.
2. Use a double boiler method. Bring a pot of water to a simmering level and top with a suitable bowl.
3. Add the coconut oil. If your coconut oil is still solid, then let it melt completely over low heat before adding the sweetener.
4. Add the sweetener and whisk until dissolved.
5. Turn off the heat and add the unsweetened cocoa powder. Whisk until the texture is silky-smooth.
6. Taste and adjust the sweetness level.
7. Pour into the silicone mold and tap a few times to ensure even distribution.
8. Chill for about 1 to 2 hours or longer until the chocolates are hardened.
9. Remove chocolates from molds and wrap with the chocolate wrappers.
10. Store leftover chocolates in the fridge or freezer.
11. This recipe makes about 3 of the standard bar silicone mold (as seen in the video).

Don't like it, just taste like greasey oil mixed with coco powder
I'm sure this is delicious, but probably depends somewhat on the brand of cocoa used. There are some I like much less than others, for sure.
For myself, however, altho I WILL try this recipe eventually, and am very appreciative of it, there is a brand of 99% chocolate bar I buy at Trader Joe's that I just break up into it's little rectangles; dip into either coconut manna (coconut butter), water or coconut oil, & then dip into a little bit of pure powdered monk fruit, shake off , & eat like that! And that works great for me without any effort, lol.
Sometimes I also pair a serving w a walnut half first, or just pair it w a smaller bit of fresh or dried dates (my fave, altho I have to limit for keto purposes).
I always plan on melting these bars & then adding a little monk fruit & pouring into a mold filled w nuts, date pieces or coconut manna, and have done it before to great success. But just eating the unmelted pieces as described is so much easier & just as satisfying! And the chocolate is so dark, yet so good & not bitter, that it has become my go-to for my daily dark chocolate fix!
@@whiskeywine use cocoa butter
This is has a creamy taste and delicious! We loved it! I lessened the cocoa by a 1/4 cup and it was the perfect chocolate flavor for us. This recipe is a great starter for so many flavors and flavor combos!!
That's great! Thanks so much for your feedback ❤️
very good I will try it.
Need these silicones in my life, thank you, ordered with your link 🙏
Thank you ❤
Thank you so much for sharing! great and brilliant recipe!
Wow looks good
I am so thankfull for your channel! Thank you so much for sharing your recipes ! I made few and it was always a win ! You are amazing! Can I use allulose syrup in this recipes? Thanks
You can but Allulose liquid is quite mild in sweetness so using too much may be a problem but small amount is fine. Alternatively you can use stevia liquid which is more concentrated so only a small amount is needed
I love chocolate in many forms but g/f prefer milk chocolate.
I've made several keto cakes,brownies waffles recipes.. I'm going to try this in my keto milk chocolate shake. Mmmm.
beautyful
Brilliant, exactly what my husband and I need when we get a sweet tooth. Thank you
😍🥰😋😍I will trye to do ir. ♥️🥰😍😋
You gotta temper the chocolate otherwise the final chocolate will be soft like brownies not hard. Didn’t know that until I followed her recipe and came out soft….
Hi .. Could you substitute the allulose with honey ? Thanks regardsnfrom Greece 🇬🇷
Yes you can if you're not counting carbs
I need to use only stevia. Would you recommend Using powdered or liquid?
As mentioned, powdered ones wd be the best as adding liquid wd make the chocolate softer. But if you don't mind softer chocolate then it's fine to add the liquid one which will actually make the texture smoother.
❤️❤️❤️ I made Dark Chocolate using cocoa butter with raw cocoa and powdered sugar and put it in the freezer and after taking it out, I noticed that it was cohesive at first, but after 2 seconds it melted, meaning it is not Cohesive, like that we buy from the markets, does your recipe remain coherent
I just tested by taking 2.pieces out of the freezer, removed the wrappers and left them on the kitchen counter. They started to melt just a tiny bit after 5 mins and slightly more after 10 mins but still holds their shape. And I live in Malaysia with hot tropical weather. I have no problem eating them straight out of the fridge as well. But I am surprised that yours melted so rapidly out of the freezer even with cocoa butter as I understand that chocolates made with cocoa butter does not melt as fast as those made with coconut oil.
@@lowcarbrecipeideas can i use butter instead of coconut oil?coconut oil is not available in my supermarket
@@tazboy1934 Yes you can
It's because it needs to be tempered to stay hard and snappy at room temperature

Can I use monk fruit sweetener instead of allulose?
I mentioned at the description box that Allulose is highly recommended as it does not crystallize when chilled. You can still use erythritol or monkfruit if you do not mind the grainy texture.
Does it taste bitter like dark chocolate or not
It depends on how much sweetener you add. If you prefer less bitter then add more sweetener and vice versa.
@@lowcarbrecipeideas I don't like sweet. I'm planning not to put any sort of sweetner. I just want it to taste bitter. Just like the dark chocolate 😋
Any link for allulose??
Yes I just added the link thanks 😊
Can I use extra virgin olive oil instead of the coconut oil
Sorry for the late reply 🙏 Yes you can use evoo
Good I’m going to try it then thank you!
Unfortunately, it didn’t work out for me. The butter was separating from the mixture. The texture wasn’t silky-smooth, it was grainy and thick. Can you please explain where I could have gone wrong?
This happened to me too. It turned out grainy even when I melted the “sugar” for a while
I bet it melts out of the fridge though?,
It is mentioned in the description box that it needs to be refrigerated. I could not temper the chocolate due to the hot and humid climate where I live. But you can temper the chocolate if you live in cold climate and there are many tutorial videos in the internet
They melt again because the weren't cured. 😕
I made this raspberry chia chocolate drps th-cam.com/video/AqCCg1wANGw/w-d-xo.html with your chocolate recipe, it was perfect!
Sorry I just saw your comment. It's a really good idea. I will have to try it too. Thank you so much for your feedback ❤️
Sometimes it's hard to find a space in the fridge to let things cool while they set. If you keep a large ziplock baggie filled with water in the freezer (on the bottom of everything else or on top of a frozen pizza box), you can take it out when you need something like these molds to chill and just place the molds on top of the baggie of ice. Reusable! Thanks for all your recipes, I love the no-nonsense quick format!
Thanks for sharing 🙏
That is a great idea! Gotta try it. Thank you❤
Thanks for the great video, you make it look so easy…more importantly I can’t stand adds, but the beauty of your video was that there were none till the end, so out of respect and gratefulness I gave you the thumbs up, am writing a comment on your all round great video and I watched all you adds at the end as it’s so much easier to do as there is no break in concentration during the video…yippee and well done. Can’t wait for your next video. I even subscribed…👍🙂
Thank you for your support ❤
Hello from Egypt 🇪🇬 ❤ lovely thanks 😊
This is superb and tastes much better than store-bought dark chocolate. This evening was my first time using this recipe to make dark chocolate mousse and it sent me to heaven after the first bite. Thank you so much for this simple yet decadent recipe.
You're missing a pinch of salt.......
looking lovely❤
Lieliski! Paldies!!!
Ohh I gotta try with pepper flakes!!
Yay !!! It rocks 👍
Thanks for sharing! I may try butter and Swerve (the powdered Confectioner variety - not granular) since I have these on hand. Might that work ok? Would love to not have keep buying expensive Lilly's chocolate chips :)
Yes that would work 😊
Amazingly easy and so yummy! I used 120 grams cocoa butter, and made 3 molds ( identical to yours, 24 pieces per mold). So, 72 pcs in all, divided by 24 servings of 3 squares each = 37 calories per serving. I'm not sure if my math is off, or if it's because your recipe uses coconut oil, but my calorie count is vastly different from yours of 114 ? Still worked out to 1 gram net carb per serving. Definitely a keeper though, thanks!
That's great! Thanks so much for your feedback ❤️
I wonder if you could add cream for a more milk chocolate kind.
You can try the milk chocolate. Here's the playlist;

@@lowcarbrecipeideas thank you! Can't wait till try.
Can I use Swerve instead?? And how much?
Yes but it's best to use the powdered ones
@@lowcarbrecipeideas Great! Thank you, I ended up using the brown swerve i had in the panty yesterday- over a double boiler, it never melted!! I wondered what I was doing wrong! Gonna get the powdered swerve or allulose.. Thanks again!
Buenas noches que receta tan deliciosa,me gustaria que preparas chocolate de tableta de leche vegano,pero sin lacteos y sin azucar,y otra receta de tableta de chocolate blanco vegano sin lacteos. Muchas gracias que recetan tan deliciosas.
Oh love a bit of chocolate. Can wait to try this my children are going to love me even more😀
Haha.. I bet they will 😊
Amazing and so easy 💞
Waow....this is sheer genius...
Absolutely love this video.
Love the pepper flakes idea 👌👌
Thank u for sharing ♥️😊😊

😁✌👌👍🖖😎 will be trying this real soon , love the chili flakes w/ chocolate (i thought i was the only one that liked that combination)
That's great John ! I really love it with the chili flakes and sea salt too 😊
and i thought i needed cocoa butter to make chocolate.
i am gonna try this.
Thank you I saw these molds on sale today at our Hobby Lobby will get some tomorrow
It's not chocolate,it's chocolate flavor coconaut oil😁
From mauritius.thnks a lot.its really helpful for those health conscious
Can't wait to try this!
Can I use 100% cocoa baking chocolate bar in place of the cocoa powder?
thanks for the recipe! any way to turn this into milk chocolate? thanks again!
Yes I will be experimenting on that thanks 😊
Good pm Po pde Po ba stevia-eruyhritol powder instead of allulose?
Yes you can
Cool inspiring me to get my chocolate pans out do uno some Christmas chocolates
I love your collection of candy molds. I have too many of those myself! HA!!
Yey! I need this!!! Been waiting for this kind of recipe❤❤❤
Never heard of allulose?!
thank you very much❤❤❤
Please make white chocolate, if possible
nice music! love it
I have a question. If I try to go the butter route should I use salted butter or unsalted?
It's better to use Unsalted butter. If you prefer to add salt, at least you can control the amount.
Hey just curious. Any idea of how many calories per bar? Thanks 😊
Please see the description box below video for nutrition info and full written recipe 🙏

That looks easy
Chocolate hnmm 😋
Can v use MCT oil instead of coconut oil?
Frankly I have not tried that but I think its possible
Amazing! You are awesome!
Does this chocolate keep form for long time like the store bought ones ?
These chocolates are not tempered so they can't be kept at room temperature. I live in a hot climate so am unable to temper the chocolate. But they can be refrigerated or frozen for months
I'll just get the supplies at Hobby Lobby. I'm not going to waste money on S/H costs, nor wait 2 to 6 months for the cargo ships to get anything here!
Can this chocolate eventually be made into ganache?
Yes it can
@@lowcarbrecipeideas awesome! Thank you!
Im craving i have gerd and hepatomygaly...no salt no sugar...but keto diet helps a lot... excites my cravings
I tried it tonight. I added atleast 1 tbsp of oil because the mixture became thick. I may have missed out an impt step. Do we need to boil the water first before putting in the oil? 😁
These kept in freezer or I can take it out to office??
These chocolates are not tempered so they need to be refrigerated or frozen. If you live in a cold climate then you can temper the chocolate so you can store them at room temperature. Unfortunately I live in a hot climate so I can't show you how to temper chocolates but there's a lot of resources in the internet.
To make milk chocolates just add a bit of whipping cream
Beware Allulose upsets a lot of peoples tummies. If you have not tried it before stay very near a toilet for several hours.
Without cocoa butter, with water or alcohol based mint extract and not tempered, this is not chocolate
Mine was white on top! Maybe I didn't stir it enough mix it enough😢
Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!
Gotta try
Will it melt or become liquid in room temperature?
This is a simple and easy method without tempering the chocolate so they need to be eaten straight out of the fridge or freezer. I might do another video with the tempering process which will make the chocolate last longer at room temperature.
@@lowcarbrecipeideas I see. Thank you for replying and good luck with the work. 🥰
Love it - thank you.
Hello, Coconut oil as in yung cooking oil po ba? Pwede po ba yun
It's extra virgin coconut oil. Not the one for cooking.
So,if I understood right - you have to keep those bars in the fridge and take it out when you want to eat some of them.
Is that right?
Yes because they are not tempered. In any case, I am unable to do tempering as I live in a hot and humid country. And tempering process and storage at room temperature requires temperature of below 18C or 64F
If I use butter, the volume will be same as coconut oil? 120ml?
Yes
Made them earlier today. Wow, they are delicious and so easy to make! Thanks
That's great! Thanks so much for your feedback 🙏
Do you need to temper the chocolate?
Not necessary 😊
You must temper if you want that “snap” and shine,otherwise its dull and softer texture.still tastes good
I can never get the allulose to melt in the butter. Not sure how to get it smooth
Actually, sugar can dissolve in water, not oil. That's why it's best to grind the sweeteners to as powdery as possible or better still, use liquid sweeteners.
Can you show a recipe to make tempered like keto chocolate
Unfortunately I can't as explained at the description box. I live in a hot and humid climate which is not conducive for tempering chocolates
Can I use stevia or monk fruit instead of allulose
You can except that it will taste grainy when chilled
Spanish please
Thank you! But I would skip the allulose, I prefer the bitter taste of unsweetened coco. I got store keto bread, it tasted terrible, there was allulose in it, why do people have to sweeten everything....ugh.
I agree I always reduce the amount of sweetener, I have a little but not that amount.
Yeah many store bought chocolate are super sweet...even the 60 plus cocoa choco are added full of sgar
@@beccabbea2511 we need to use all of our taste buds! Salty, bitter, pungent, sour!
@@tazboy1934 yes, too much!
Aw, isn't it too bad some of us just aren't up to your holier-than-thou standards of culinary excellence? 🙄🤮
Alkalized or the plain cocoa powder?
It's plain cocoa powder
Does chocolate taste like coconut after ?
No it doesn't
Does it melt easily at room temperature?
It depends whether you live in a hot or cold climate. As these chocolates did not go through a tempering process they can't be kept at room temperature. It may last a little longer if you live in a cold climate. As I live in a hot tropical climate, I am unable to show you how to temper the chocolates so that they can be kept at room temperature. But there are a lot of resources in the internet which you can refer to.
Can I use liquid allulose instead of powder?
Yes you can but liquid allulose is very mild in terms of sweetness so it may be a problem if you use too much as it will be too watery. If you use a bit then no problem. Liquid stevia will be a better alternative as it is stronger so you don't need a lot
Hi,i wonder what we can add so the choco remain firm a bit more after we take it out from the freezer?
You can temper the chocolate so that it can be kept at room temperature and have a good snap. But you need to have a rather cold room temperature to do that. Unfortunately I can't do tempering of the chocolates as I live in a hot and humid country. There are lots of info on the internet on how to temper chocolate
I don't have a huge amount of experience but I've made chocolate (using unsweetened baking chocolate) with both coconut oil and cocoa butter, and my experience was that the coconut oil makes the chocolate softer whereas the chocolate with the cocoa butter came out kinda crunchy. I was thinking of trying a combination of both next time.
Allulose isn’t allowed in UK. What other keto sweetener would work?
You can try stevia liquid. Alternatively you can try powdered erythritol or monkfruit but I am not sure whether it will still be a little grainy
@@lowcarbrecipeideas I have a monkfruit/erythritol blend that completely melts in my hot tea. So it seems like it would do the same in the chocolate mixture.🤷🏻♀️
@@SandraHof It ends up a little gritty, even when powdered, but it's not unpleasant. Blitzing it into a fine powder definitely helps, but it never entirely dissolves.
Hi can i use raw cacao powder instead of cocoa?
Yes you can
Thank you so much 🙂
Can i use coconut sugar?
Yes if you're not counting carbs
This is awesome thanks are you so much for this. personally because Cocoa has quite a high carb content and not have much more protein and fat in a practical diet
Hello from Islamabad, Pakistan. I love your recipes and tried most bread recipes and they worked for me. Can you please suggest something similar made with coconut flour also. Would love to experiment with that too. TIA
Hu Asma, so nice to hear from you and thanks for your feedback ❤ Do you mean coconut flour for bread?
@@lowcarbrecipeideas I meant a snack with coconut flour

Thank you for this. What butter, aside from cocoa butter, would you recommend if not using coconut oil?
Any unsalted butter is fine
If your looking foot healthy butter than cocoa butter, grass fed milk butter and coconut butter are the best choice
How does this compare to dark chocolate ganache--dark chocolate and heavy cream? The ganache may have slightly more carbs but it will be silky smooth.
Hi, can i use and replace coconut oil w/ coconut cream & cocoa powder w/ cacao powder instead?
Can i add dates instead of artificial sweetener ?
Hi thanks for the recipe. I made a similar one with coconut oil, but I get an oily feel on my tongue and I can taste the coconut more than I would like. Is there some kind of tip to make that go away ?
Use refined coconut oil, it lacks this taste
@@aberdeenflyers7441 wow thanks for the reply, I didn't know about refined coconut oil when I posted this comment. I don't think I can find refined in my country but I'll look into it! Thanks !
