Published
Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: None - chill for 20 minutes
Serves: 4 - 6
Allergy Information: Gluten Free, Wheat Free, Lactose Free, Dairy Free, Vegetarian, Vegan
Ingredients
- 65g mixed nuts, roughly chopped (we used brazils, walnuts and almonds)
- 130g creamed coconut, melted
- 35g Lucy Bee Cacao Powder
- 1 tsp. Coconut Sugar dissolved in water to create coconut nectar, optional, to taste
Method
- In a bowl, mix the melted Creamed Coconut with Cacao Powder, to create a mousse-like consistency. Stir the optional dissolved Coconut Sugar in, to taste.
- Transfer the mixture into a chocolate mould or into a tray lined with greaseproof paper, pressing any air bubbles out with the back of a spoon.
- Add the crushed nuts and use clean hands to press them into the chocolate so they won’t fall out when the chocolate has set.
- Pop in the fridge to set - this should take approx. 20 minutes.
- Remove from the fridge and the mould. Use a sharp knife to carefully cut into bite-sized pieces.
- Store in the fridge in an airtight container, for up to 2 weeks and enjoy straight from the fridge for best results.
Enjoy!

Lucy & the family
A family story, rooted in gluten-free cooking
Lucy’s coeliac diagnosis changed the way the family cooked and ate. Reading labels, choosing ingredients carefully and preparing meals from scratch became second nature.
These recipes reflect our family’s love of natural, minimally processed ingredients and food to enjoy together, including recipes from our two coconut oil cookbooks.
