Ingredients

 * ⅓ cup (45 g) coconut oil
 * ¼ cup (25 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
 * ⅛ cup + 1 tsp (30 ml + 1 tsp) maple syrup
 * 1 pinch salt

Preparation

 * 1) Melt the coconut oil in a small saucepan over low heat. Once melted, transfer to a bowl and whisk in unsweetened cacao powder, maple syrup, and salt until smooth and lump-free.
 * 2) Pour the chocolate mix into small chocolate molds. You can also use a regular baking tray.
 * 3) Place them in the freezer/fridge to harden for a few hours. If using a regular baking tray, cut the chocolate into pieces with a sharp knife.

Notes, tips, and variations

 * Because these confections are not made of tempered chocolate, they will not hold their shape at room temperature. They must be stored in the fridge or freezer.
