Total Time: 15 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup sugar substitute
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/2 cup brewed espresso
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 cup almond flour, 1/2 cup sugar substitute, 1/4 cup melted coconut oil, 1/2 cup brewed espresso, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the unsweetened cocoa powder, almond flour, sugar substitute, and salt. Whisk the dry ingredients together until they are well blended and there are no lumps.
- In a separate bowl, mix the melted coconut oil, brewed espresso, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, mix everything together until fully combined. The mixture should be thick and fudgy.
- Once the mixture is well combined, use your hands to knead it lightly in the bowl for a minute to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Line a baking dish or a square pan with parchment paper for easy removal. Transfer the mixture into the prepared dish, pressing it down firmly with your hands or a spatula to create an even layer.
- Place the dish in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to allow the mixture to firm up slightly.
- After chilling, remove the dish from the refrigerator and cut the mixture into 12 equal squares or rectangles.
- Store the Sugar Free Mocha Treats in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week, or enjoy them immediately!
Tips
- Quality Ingredients Matter: Choose high-quality unsweetened cocoa powder and a sugar substitute that you enjoy, as these will greatly influence the flavor of your treats.
- Experiment with Flavors: Feel free to add a pinch of cinnamon or a splash of almond extract to enhance the flavor profile of your mocha treats.
- Chill for Best Results: Allowing the mixture to chill for at least 10 minutes helps it firm up, making it easier to cut into perfect squares.
- Storage Secrets: Keep your Sugar Free Mocha Treats in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness, and they can last up to a week—if they last that long!
- Serving Suggestions: Enjoy these treats on their own, or pair them with a cup of your favorite coffee or tea for a delightful afternoon pick-me-up!
