Prep time: 10 minutes
Serves 10 people

Ingredients

  • 4 oz. edible organic cocoa butter
  • 3 oz. creamed coconut (AKA coconut butter or coconut manna; “Artisana Organics” brand has a nice texture)
  • 2 tsp. orange blossom honey
  • 1/4 Cup organic sugar or coconut sugar
  • 5 -8 drops liquid stevia
  • 1 Tbsp. vanilla powder (find in candy-making stores or online; extract might work, but it yields a less attractive color and texture)

  • dash pink Himalayan salt, plus additional salt for top

Directions

  4. Carefully pour candy mixture into the pan or candy molds. Very lightly dust the top of the sheet with salt.

  5. Set pan or pan with silicone molds into the fridge or freezer to solidify.

  6. Allow to chill for one hour or more.
