Are you craving something chocolate? That doesn't mean you have to break out the sugar to satisfy your sweet tooth.

You can create naturally sweetened chocolate treats with just 3 common ingredients that you may already have on hand.

This recipe is also grain free and dairy free!

Ingredients

1 cup raisins (buy here)
1 cup shredded coconut, preferably unsweetened (buy here)
1 tbsp cocoa powder (buy here)

What You'll Need

A food processor (I use this one)
A silicone mold (buy here)
A silicone spatula (buy here)

1. Process Ingredients

Start by putting the shredded coconut into the food processor, followed by the raisins and cocoa. Pulse for 1-2 minutes. Scrape the sides of the food processor with a spatula. Repeat until all of the ingredients are sticky and well-combined.

You may double or triple this recipe to make more than one batch. Unless you have a large food processor, only process one batch at a time.

2. Press Into Molds

Once the ingredients are well incorporated, press the mixture into small silicone molds. Press some of the shredded coconut into the top of each “candy” as a garnish.

Place the molds into the refrigerator for 1-2 hours until the candies are firm.

Store them in a bag or container in the fridge.

Here's an easily printable recipe. Keep it in your kitchen for easy access the next time you are in the mood for a chocolate fix!
