Wild Orange Chocolate Crackles
Quick and easy chocolate crackles infused with wild orange essential oil.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
- 2 tablespoons raw cacao butter, melted
- 1/2 cup brown rice syrup
- 1¼ cups raw cacao powder
- pinch coarse sea salt
- 14 drops pure orange essential oil
- ¾ cup pumpkin seeds
- 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
- ¼ cup chia seeds
- 11/2 cups puffed rice
- 1 cup puffed quinoa
Instructions
- Combine the coconut oil, cacao butter, brown rice syrup, cacao powder, sea salt and wild orange oil in a large bowl and mix to combine. The batter should be little on the thick side.
- Add the seeds and fold through.
- Add the puffed grains and use your hands to combine the mixture to evenly disperse all ingredients.
- Roll into balls and place in individual paper baking cups (small size).
- Serve as is or chill first to firm them up.
Notes
- You can use coconut oil in place of the cacao butter, although they may melt a bit quicker at room temperature. Cacao butter gives it a more authentic chocolatey taste in my opinion.
- If the chocolate mixture is too thick to work with, stand the bowl over a pot of hot water to help the oils melt.
- If the mixture is too wet to roll into balls, refrigerate for a short while to firm it up.
