Ingredients
1/2 oz crushed walnuts 1/3 oz Reduced Sugar Craisins3 tsp Erythritol Sweetener 1 oz Cacao Butter 1 oz Cacao Powder or unsweetened cocoa1/4 tsp Honey
Put your cacao butter in a microwave save bowl.
Add the cocoa/cacao powder on top
Then add the sweetener, including the honey.
You'll be adding the nuts and cranberries later.
Put your microwave on soften/melt and if it has a chocolate setting, use that. If not, set it at 50% and check it every 2 minutes.
Once the cacao butter starts to melt, start stirring every couple of minutes, until it's shiny. If your chocolate is melted, but doesn't become shiny after stirring, then add a tiny bit more cacao butter. It will melt, you won't have to microwave any more. You don't want to burn it.
Add the nuts and craisins and stir.
The mixture will be a little thick, not runny, because of the add ins. Scoop it into your mold. Before I got my candy mold, I used to use silicone cupcake molds. They made my candy look like peanut butter cups. :-)
Put them in the refrigerator to set. Once they are set, I usually store them in the freezer.
These can and WILL melt in your hands, so be careful.
