Dark Cocoa Infused Honey
If you like dark chocolate, this is the treat for you! Beautiful wildflower honey is infused with cocoa and dark chocolate to make a thick, frosting-like treat that is good right off of the spoon.
Ingredients
- 12oz of honey, or 1 cup
- 2 tablespoons of powdered cocoa
- 2 squares of dark chocolate bar, pref. 70% or more
- 1 vanilla bean
- 1 tbsp cocoa nibs (optional)
Instructions
Use a double boiler to gently warm the honey. You don’t want it to boil or simmer, just warm enough to blend and melt in the ingredients.
Shave the two squares of the dark chocolate bar using a grater or chop it finely. Stir the chocolate into the warm honey and give it a stir. Enjoy the lovely swirling of the chocolate and honey as they blend!
Sprinkle in the cocoa powder and stir it in. It will take a little while for all of the lumps to break apart.
Once it is all blended, turn off the heat and get the jar ready. Add the vanilla bean (chopped in half) and the cocoa nibs to the jar and cover it with the cocoa honey. Put a lid on the jar and let it set for a few hours for best results.
