Raw Chocolate Haystacks Recipe from Raw & Simple



 Trying to keep to 100% raw ain't really that hard as long as you have chocolate......RIGHT. Now this past weekend I did make a tofu scramble with all the fixin's but I actually felt like I was doing something wrong even though it was all this vegan and tasted great. So wanting to get back to my raw state I need some desserts for the week, reading some new books that the wifey got I found this one and they reminded me of no-bake cookies which I love. I followed  this recipe exactly no subs or add-ins it was perfect. This book Raw & Simple by Judita Wignall is full of great recipes that I can't wait to try.




Chocolate Haystacks

2/3 cup cacao powder 

1/2 cup maple syrup

1/4 cup coconut oil melted 

1 tsp vanilla extract 

1/4 sea salt 

2 cups shredded coconut. 

This recipe is straight out of page 149 of her book. In my words just blend the first 5 ingredients and then add the coconut mix till well combined. Scope about a tbsp at a time on to parchment paper then place in the freezer for 30 min till they are firmed up and enjoy. There will more of her recipes to come.
