Homemade Chocolates~!

    Well. I.... >.> I. Lost. ._. I lost the bet. *feeling despaired* I hate admitting defeat, dang it. >.< Anyway! I lost the bet; I did not post 31 posts last month. Oops~?

    Just for a quick post today, I made homemade chocolates. :) I've been wanting to do so for a long while, but have been having a hard time finding a recipe that is simple and allergy-friendly. My dad taught me how to make ice cream the other day, and that struck me with an idea.

    Quick. Simple. Three ingredients that we always have on hand. Allergy-friendly. :) I did not do any measurements, though. Just kind of eyed the amounts. Mix some coconut milk in with cocoa until it is moist. Add honey, and stir it in. It may make it runny, so add some more cocoa and stir it in until it is moist, but firm. Drop it onto parchment paper and stick it in the freezer until it is cold and a little firmer - 10 to 15 minutes maybe. I did not keep track of the time. Then eat it as you want. :) It is good~ I like mine a little more on the bitter side. Not bitter-bitter, just slightly sweet underneath bitter. It's tasty~ And rich, so don't eat to much or you might get a stomach ache.

    On a more awkward note: If you have trouble with your bowel movements, the more cocoa you ingest, it will help get that moving and clean out your system. :) That is part of why people say eating cocoa on a regular basis is good for you. The other part is that it helps to elevate your mood by activating your pleasure hormones. Unless you are like my father; it makes him depressed. Sad. :( Anyway, so. That is on a health note. :)

     Here is a picture. It didn't come out too clear, and I know the chocolate is not shaped super pretty, but...well, what is a Blog post without a picture, right? XD


    With that, I shall take my leave and get ready for...*dramatic pause*...COMIC CON. AHH!!!! :D :D :D Seriously!! :D ALKJASFKJ:FSJAF

    My father and I have dreamt of going to a Comic Con together ever since I was 5 or 6 years old! :D This is honestly a life-long dream come true! <3

Have a yummy afternoon, dear reader. :)
Love,
Bryn
