Rainforest, ocean, eco-lodge, chocolate plantation…This vacation was an incredible experience! So much about staying at La Loma Jungle Lodge in Panama was amazing, but learning about the production of chocolate was the best part. Or, maybe eating and drinking the chocolate was the best part!
When I returned home I created this super clean, delicious, melt-in-your-mouth chocolate recipe that is beneficial to your health. Yes, healthy chocolate that you can eat every day (I do!)- full of antioxidants, minerals, and good fat. This is the dark stuff, so be prepared for a punch!

1/8 teaspoon salt
Whisk until smooth and remove from heat.
Add and whisk:
10 drops stevia
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Add a little at a time and whisk until smooth:

Press parchment paper into an 8×8 baking dish. Pour the chocolate in and smooth out with a rubber scraper.

Wrap up in parchment and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Indulge and enjoy your homemade chocolate!
