Homemade Mint Chocolate Bar

I eat an absurd amount of chocolate. I might have a six-pack if I cut back, but IDGAF.

It’s a food group for me on the keto diet.

Until recently, I got by with 85-90% chocolate bars from the grocery store.

Since I always have cacao powder in the pantry, it was about time to make my own no-sugar variety using a newly purchased silicone chocolate mold.

Adding mint to the equation just makes sense. Peppermint is good for digestion and chocolate is good for your soul.

One of my favorite candies growing up were Andes Mints.

This low-carb chocolate bar recipe gives you the same sweet yet cooling taste that is perfect after a meal.

It will not disappoint, and at less than 10 grams net carbs for the entire bar, it’s worth making this a regular to your routine.

Here are the directions:

• ½ cup Cacao Powder (40 g)
• 3 tbsp Cacao Butter (40 g)
• 1 tbsp Swerve Erythritol (10 g)
