Add a tangy taste of raspberries to your Valentine’s chocolate gift with these chocolate raspberry coconut cups.

This recipe is completely vegan, meaning everyone can enjoy this sweet treat.

They are so easy to make, naturally sweet, and truly scrumptious.

Ingredients

• ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa
• ¾ cup coconut oil – melted and cooled
• ¼ cup maple syrup
• ¼ tsp sea salt
• 1 cup oats
• ½ cup shredded coconut
• 1 cup raspberries – fresh or frozen and thawed
• 2 tbsp coconut cream
• Another tbsp maple syrup
• Another tbsp melted coconut oil
• 1 tsp vanilla

Directions

1. First prepare your muffin pan with liners and a little spritz of coconut oil. This mixture will make 9 individual chocolate cups. Mix your cocoa, the cups of melted coconut oil and maple syrup, and sea salt until smooth.
2. Pour most of the chocolatey mixture into each liner, setting some aside for topping later. Use a pastry brush or teaspoon to evenly coat the bottom and the sides. Place the muffin tin in the freezer for 10 minutes.
3. Now it’s time to make your filling. Blitz the oats and shredded coconut in a food processor and set this aside in a separate bowl. Puree your raspberries in the processor then add the blitzed oats and coconut, along with the coconut cream, tablespoon of maple syrup, tablespoon of melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Mix all this until smooth and well-combined.
4. Take your muffin tin from the freezer. Roll a tablespoon of the filling into a ball, flatten and place into each chocolate base. Cover each filled base with the remainder of the melted chocolate set aside previously.
5. Refrigerate the cups until firm, and enjoy!

These cookie dough bites are the healthy and delicious way to finish off your Valentine’s plant-based meal or can be served on their own as a super indulgent treat. Here’s how to make them…

Ingredients

• ½ cup fine blanched almond flour
• 2-3 tbsp coconut flour
• ¼ tsp salt
• 3 tbsp chocolate chips
• 3 ounces dark chocolate – 70% cocoa (min)
• Another tsp coconut oil

Directions

1. Combine the tahini and 2 tablespoons of coconut oil until smooth. Then add the maple syrup and vanilla extract, and combine well.
2. Next add the almond flour and salt, plus 2 tablespoons of coconut flour. You will see the cookie dough taking shape. Rest for 5 minutes until the mixture is thick, dough-like and moist. If the mixture is too moist add another ½ tablespoon of coconut flour before stirring in the chocolate chips.
