4 Ingredient Dark Chocolate Almond Butter

202 comments

Good morning!

Thanks so much for your awesome comments yesterdayyou guys have me so excited about this whole process. I will

try my best to do some update posts here and there during the process.

Now onto the most important thing of the day: chocolate.

They say PMS will do crazy things to a girl.

I cry, I laugh (evilly), I groan, I complain, and I feel a fire in the pit of my stomach when I cant find my car keys. Flames

and smoke erupt from my ears at any given moment. It aint pretty.

However, this is why chocolate was invented.

The first edible chocolate bar is thought to originate in England by Fry & Sons in 1847.

Despite it all, I realized yesterday that there is a silver lining to the PMS cloud: I often think of my quickest and easiest

chocolate recipe ideas during this time. It is almost as if all other mind clutter disappears to make room for the single and

most important thought

Chocolate.

I find myself desperate in the kitchen, thinking of a new way to get my chocolate fix, when idea after idea pops into my

mind. Im convinced this is an adaptive female instinct that has allowed us to survive during times of hormonal temper

tantrums.

Yesterday, I tried a recipe idea that literally had me running to the kitchen: 4-ingredient homemade dark chocolate

almond butter. I wasnt sure if it would turn out, but I was willing to give it a try. Sometimes a girls gotta do what a

girls gotta do!

4-Ingredient Dark Chocolate Almond Butter

Creamy, silky, and intensely chocolaty, this homemade chocolate almond butter will satisfy even the most

intense chocolate craving, while providing you with the nutritional benefits of raw almonds at the same

time! The secret to this chocolate almond butter is melting the chocolate and mixing it into freshly made

almond butter. Enjoy it on toast, hot oatmeal, muffins, crackers, fruit, graham crackers, or veggiesthe

sky is the limit. The calorie count is also about the same for this chocolate nut butter as it is for regular

almond butter. See below for nutritional info.

Yield: ~ 20 one tbsp servings,1 & 1/4 cup, or enough to fill a 250 ml jar.

Ingredients:

2 cups raw almonds

1/2 cup dark chocolate (I used organic dark chocolate chips)

1 tsp coconut oil (another oil may work too)

1/8th-1/4 tsp kosher salt, to taste

Directions: Place 2 cups of raw, whole almonds into a food processor. Process for about 15 minutes, scraping

down the sides of the bowl every minute or as necessary. It is a long process, but you dont want to stop until you

have released all the oils in the almonds and the mixture is very smooth and buttery! This took me a good 14-15

minutes.

Just before your almond butter is ready, add the 1/2 cup chocolate chips and 1 tsp of coconut oil to a small pot.

Melt on low. You want to remove the pot from heat when there are still some chocolate chip clumps remaining.

Dont worry they will melt as you stir the mixture. I always take it off the heat a bit early to avoid burning the


6/38



chocolate.

Add the melted chocolate to the almond butter (still in the processor) and process for a couple minutes, scraping

down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Add your kosher salt to taste and process more. Scoop into a container

and store in the fridge. Makes 1 & 1/4 cups, 20 one-tbsp servings, or enough to fill a 250 ml jar. Refrigerate.

Note that the almond butter firms up in the fridge. Allow it to sit at room temperature to soften before

using.

Nutritional Info: (per tbsp, approx 20 servings per batch): 104 kcals, 9 grams fat (1 gram sat fat), 6grams carbs, 2 grams fibre, 3 grams sugar, 3 grams protein.

See below for a Dark Chocolate Peanut Butterversion too!

Gather your ingredients: Raw almonds, coconut oil, dark chocolate, and kosher salt.

9/38



And whirrrrrrrrraway!


10/38



After a minute or two, you will see that the almonds begin to stick to the sides of the processor bowlnot much

spinning action is going on at this point!


11/38



Stop the processor and scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl.

Like so.


12/38



Now process some more until it starts to stick to the bowl again. You will have to stop and scrape down the bowl a

dozen times during the 15 minutes. This is normal!

After about 4 minutes


13/38



After about 6-8 minutes, it will start to look like this.

It sticks on the bottom of the bowl and you will need to use some elbow grease to get it off. Break up the clumps and

process some more.

After 10 minutes, a ball will start to form. It has the texture of play-dough at this point. You will need to use a spatula

and break apart the clumps.


14/38



After 12 minutes, you will be tempted to say that your almond butter is now ready, but dont stop just yet! If you keep

going an extra 2-3 minutes, you will be rewarded with an extra buttery and soft almond butter!

Keep going

Meanwhile, heat your chocolate and coconut oil on low, making sure not to burn it.


15/38



After 15 minutes, you will have the most creamy and buttery almond butter imaginable!

Now add themelted chocolateand coconut oil into the processor


16/38



Process for about 2 minutes, stopping to scrape down the down as necessaryadd kosher salt to taste (I think I used

1/4 tsp kosher salt).

Voila.

The most intensely chocolaty nut butter I have ever tasted! It sort of reminds me of Nutellabut then again I have neve

tried Nutella before!


17/38



It makes 1 & 1/4 cup or enough to fill a 250 ml jar.

I like to save my old jam jars just for this kind of thing.


18/38



I enjoyed my dark chocolate almond butter on flax toast with raspberry jam.


19/38



with tea

I also made a super quick dark chocolate peanut butterthat took just a few minutes to make.

Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter

Ingredients:

1 cup smooth peanut butter

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

1 tsp coconut oil
http://cdn.ohsheglows.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/IMG_8802b.jpghttp://cdn.ohsheglows.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/IMG_8917.jpg


21/38



Kosher salt, to taste

Directions: Add peanut butter into a medium sized bowl. In a small bowl, melt chocolate and coconut oil in microwave

for about 60 seconds, stopping to stir after about 40 seconds. Be careful not to burn. Add melted chocolate to peanut

butter and mix well. Add kosher salt to taste.

This version took about 3 minutes flat!


22/38



Both are really delicious. I have tried store bought chocolate almond butter before, but I was always a bit disappointed

because the chocolate flavour wasnt intense. I was really happy with these homemade versions as they are super

chocolaty!

I also want to try making a dark chocolate pecan butter or cashew butter and experiment using roasted nuts instead of

raw.


23/38



Chocolate craving demolished.

For now.

Thanks for sharing this, Angela! I have been wondering about chocolate nut buttersand I refuse to buy them

because they are SO expensive. But I have a question is coconut oil the same thing as coconut butter? I got a

jar of Artisana raw organic coconut butter, and it looks just like the scoop of oil you have above, but Im not sur

theyre the same thing. Help!

Reply

Angela (Oh She Glows)January 12, 2011

I believe coconut butter is coconut oil + coconut fleshIm not sure if it melts like plain coconut oil? You

can probably sub in the tsp of coconut oil for another light tasting oil too. :)

Yum! I do something really really similar but use cocao/cocoa powder instead. So tasty!

If only I had a food processor. This looks great. The only thing that could be better is dark chocolate hazelnut

butter, but Im a Nutella fiend.

I am so happy because this is Nutella but the nutrition information shows that its a lot healthier! My mouth is

watering just looking at the pics. I have been trying to keep away from chocolate but Im not going to be able to

resist this. Swoooooooooon!

Woah. Woah my gosh! I want to put it into the no bake balls from the other week. I need a new batch anyway!

Amy @ purewellnessamyJanuary 12, 2011

Fantastic idea, Kathryn! Ive become addicted to the no bake balls! I just made a peanut butter/chocolate

chip version and they are nearly as good as the almond butter version!

stepf @dailyspark January 12, 2011

I make a similar recipe, but I roast my almonds and dont add salt or coconut oil. My boyfriend wanted a vegan

Nutella swap. Ill have to try it with raw almonds next time.

Shanna, like BananaJanuary 12, 2011

As much as Id like to make this, Im pretty sure my food processor would die at 10 minutes!

THis kind of makes me want to start PMSing.. okay, not really, but you know what I mean!

Erin @ The Grass SkirtJanuary 12, 2011

I cannot wait to make this almond butter! My mom is going to freak when I bring it over to her. Thanks so much

for sharing! And I hear you on the PMS. I once cried uncontrollably on the couch because I could figure out how

to move a file on my new MacBook. It wasnt pretty.

Leanne @ Healthful PursuitJanuary 12, 2011

This looks SO great! May I ask what food processor do you use for your nut butters? Ive attempted to make

nut butters with mine and it makes it very very chunky. Not smooth like yours!

Reply

desiree April 23, 2013

I have a cuisinart and it comes out smooth. Its a work horse.

Reply

Liz @ IHeartVegetablesJanuary 12, 2011

that looks heavenly!!! Do you think it would work with Roasted Almonds? thats usually how I make my almond

butter, but I bet it would still be good with Raw almonds. Just a question! Thanks!

Reply

KatieJanuary 12, 2011

I have to say that as much as I love making things from scratch, the second recipe is much more my speed. I just

dont have the patience for making my own nut butters. Ive tried. And if there is the promise of chocolate at the

end.forget it. Id have those chocolate chips eaten by the time the nut butter was ready for them!

Caroline @ chocolate & carrotsJanuary 12, 2011

Done. I am making that. So simple and so delicious.
