This is my super healthy version of everyone’s childhood favourite coconut centred chocolate bar. With a whopping 20mg dose of CBD oil and an abundant amount of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), these Peppermint CBD Bounty Bars make for a healthy and happy brain.
Ingredients
For the bounty:
For the raw chocolate:
  • 40g cacao paste (roughly chopped/grated)
  • 40g cacao butter (roughly chopped/grated)
  • 1 tbsp raw honey/maple syrup/agave
  • OR 100g good quality dark chocolate (85% cocoa solids or above)
Instructions
  1. Grease and line a small brownie tin (I used an 8.5″ x 6.5″ tin) with greaseproof paper, be sure to leave enough excess so that you can lift the Bounty Bars out. Alternatively, use a loose based tin or suitable silicone mould.
  2. In a large mixing bowl stir together all of the ingredients for the Bounty mixture. Spoon into the lined brownie tin and smooth out using the back of your spoon. You can also flatten the mixture with damp hands. Place into the refrigerator (or freezer) and leave to set. This could take 1-2 hours to firm up but is faster in the freezer.
  3. Once set, remove from the tin and slice into 8 equal sized squares. Place back into the freezer whilst you melt your chocolate.
  4. Place your chocolate ingredients (or chocolate) over a double boiler and melt over a low heat, stirring frequently. Remove from the heat and set to one side until cool. It should be thick in viscosity and cool to the touch when dabbed on the skin below your lip. It's now time to dip.
  5. Dip your bars into the melted chocolate using a fork. Tap the fork onto the bowl to remove any excess chocolate and place onto a baking tray lined with either a silicone mat or greaseproof paper. Repeat the dipping process 2-3 times and then place the bars in the fridge/freezer until set.
  6. Store in an airtight container within the fridge and consume within 1 week. Alternatively, freeze and consume within 4-6 weeks.
Notes
To make coconut cream just refrigerate a full fat can of coconut milk and scoop out the hardened white coconut cream, simple!

Each Bounty Bar contains 20.75mg - you can alter the CBD mg content as you wish to be higher or lower. You could also cut into 10 to bring the dosage down to a more modest 16.6mg. Do not exceed 200mg per day.

I used the 'Peppermint' flavoured tincture but any of the other flavours would work equally as well.

*All cup measurements used are UK cup measurements and so 1 cup = 250ml. Please note that the prep time is largely setting time.
