Just Panela Jamaican Jerk Raw Cacao Chocolate Bark

This amazing recipe was sent to us from one of our fans! <3

Ingredients: (measurements vary to taste preference)

  • Raw cacao butter

  • Raw cacao paste

  • A mix of: Just Panela, fresh ground whole allspice (also called pimento), cayenne, fresh ground black peppercorns, powdered ginger, fresh grated nutmeg and lucama powder. Sea salt optional.

  • Nuts, berries, etc.: unsalted dry roasted peanuts, soaked and dehydrated almonds, unsweetened coconut flakes, goldenberries.

  • Lucama powder and goldenberries (though raisins would be authentic) added as power boost and for flavor and texture.

  • Optional traditional spices: cinnamon, clove, thyme.

Method:

Melt shredded/chopped paste and butter in double boiler over warm water (low enough to keep cacao raw). Pre-mix panela, spices and lucama and once cacao is in dish, sprinkle mixture on top. (Sprinkling sugar adds texture as opposed to dissolving.) Sprinkle in coconut flakes, then nuts and berries. Do not cover which may create condensation. Refrigerate until set. Pry out one spot then begin to break into desired sized pieces. Cover and/or store in container. Keep refrigerated up to two weeks.

Option: grease dish with coconut oil, but that may effect finish on bottom.
