Plant-based butter serves as an excellent alternative to traditional butter products and also offers high amounts of fiber and protein. Allulose is a healthy sugar alternative and helps to lower blood sugar. Dairy-free chocolate chips serve as a healthier alternative to traditional chocolate, while at the same time help to lower cholesterol levels and improve blood circulation. Almonds are rich in antioxidants, loaded with fiber, and help to improve skin health. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
1 cup plant-based butter
½ cup allulose
1 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
1 tsp coconut oil
½ cup raw, unsalted almonds (chopped)
Instructions:
1) Line a square baking pan (8x8) with parchment paper.
2) Heat the butter and allulose in a saucepan on low-medium heat. Heat until the butter is melted and allulose is dissolved. Continuously stir.
3) Once the mixture begins to bubble, add a candy thermometer to the center of the mixture. Stir the mixture every thirty seconds until the thermometer reaches 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
4) Remove the saucepan from the heat. Continue to stir to ensure the butter and allulose do not separate.
5) Pour the mixture into the lined baking pan and allow to sit for five minutes.
6) Add the chocolate chips to a separate saucepan. Add a tsp of coconut oil to help melt the chocolate chips and heat on low-medium heat.
7) Once the chocolate has melted, allow to cool for a few minutes. Pour the melted chocolate over the butter/allulose mixture. Top with the chopped almonds. Cover with tinfoil and let sit for an additional five minutes.
8) Transfer to the refrigerator and refrigerate until firm. Once firm, break into pieces and store in an airtight container. Enjoy!
