- 1/2 cup cacao powder
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 1/2 cup whole coffee beans
- 2 1/2 tablespoons granulated non-GMO erythritol or birch xylitol
Instructions:
- Refrigerate the coffee beans for 5-10 minutes while you prepare the chocolate coating. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- If using a granulated sweetener, pulse it in a blender until it reaches a fine, powdery consistency. You can also use a pre-powdered sweetener and skip this step.
- Combine sweetener with cacao butter, cacao powder, salt, and vanilla. Stir and blend completely.
- Remove coffee beans from the refrigerator and add to the chocolate mixture. Stir to coat each bean in chocolate.
- With a fork, lift each bean from the chocolate and place on the baking sheet. Freeze the tray until chocolate has set.
- Serve immediately, or store covered in the refrigerator or freezer.
