Woohoo! Today is an exciting day because I am sharing the recipe for this Homemade Vegan Chocolate Bar with you! The idea for this chocolate bar came to me because of Instagram. I have recently been really into food styling, and I thought that pieces of a chocolate bar would make some of my pictures look better. I knew that I could purchase a vegan chocolate bar at the grocery store, but I still wanted to keep things as healthy as possible. A lot of vegan chocolate bars that are available contain a lot of soy ingredients, not to mention that vegan chocolate bars aren’t the cheapest things to buy. So I decided to purchase a chocolate bar mold. This homemade vegan chocolate bar recipe is simple, rich, and super chocolaty. It is made using only four ingredients: cacao butter, maple syrup, cacao powder, and vanilla extract. How easy is that!
