I made these to resemble Easter eggs. They are much healthier though for you and will actually help fill you up and help satisfy your sweet tooth/chocolate craving too. :) I think of these as a healthier version to jelly beans. :) And it’s really simple too…
You need….
- 1x recipe for just the chocolate part of my homemade reese’s (below)
- 1/2 c. cocoa powder
- 1/4 c. melted butter (the real thing! or earth balance, or coconut oil as suggested in the original recipe)
- 1 t. vanilla
- 1/8 – 1/4 c. honey/agave
2. 2 c. almonds (or you could use peanuts, other nuts, or seeds)
Make the chocolate by combining all the ingredients) . Stir in the almonds until all are evenly coated. Use fork to dish out almonds and separate them. Place them on cookie sheet covered in parchment paper or wax paper. Store in the freezer or fridge until ready to serve. :)
