Yield
2-3 cups of base chocolate mixture to use on its own, or to add mix instead
Ingredients
1 cup cacao butter (melted)
1 cup maple sugar granules (ground to fine powder)
¾ cup cacao powder
Recipe Directions
1. Grind the maple sugar to a fine powder and set aside.
2. Melt cacao butter in dehydrator until liquefied.
3. Add cacao powder, powdered maple sugar and stir until completely combined.
4. When I made this, after incorporating the base ingredients, I split the mixture into two bowls: to one I added 3/4 to 1 cup coarsely ground soaked dehydrated almonds, and to the other half I added 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract.
5. Mix ingredients quickly as cacao butter hardens fast. If you find it too stiff to comfortably work with, place mixture back into dehydrator to let it soften again.
6. Pour into candy molds, onto a lined cookie sheet, or onto any other flat surface and smooth to desired thickness. I used the lids of a few of my Lock `n Lock containers to spread the mixture into. They were the perfect depth for me.
7. Cover with waxed paper or plastic wrap and freeze until firm. Enjoy!
Note:
It can also be made into chocolate chips (that are eerily identical to Hershey’s) by dropping the mixture onto a parchment/waxed paper/plastic wrap lined cookie sheet with a pastry bag and fine tip.
Rawererin's Thoughts
By rawererinThis is an excellent, raw, and completely solid chocolate bar.
Add vanilla and almonds for a Hershey’s Goodbar-esque bar.
Add mint extract for a deliciously smooth minty bars.

Sun Organics has date sugar that I believe is actually raw. I talked to them on the phone and they said that they are just dates that are dried, I think either in the sun or at low temp.

greenie, agave isn't raw either. It doesn't matter. Both maple syrup and agave are cooked, even is it is labeled raw. You can get truly raw palm nectar at "Gene Fit Nutrition":http://genefitnutrition.com

Maple syrup/sugar aren't raw, but they do retain their nutrients, and using agave won't get your chocolate as hard

I like to use lucuma, it give the chocolate a nice velvety texture.

This looks wonderful. Although it is loads healthier than commercial chocolate bars, it is not completely raw. Maple syrup and sugar are cooked. If you used lucuma or agave, it would be raw.
