Coconut Oil Chocolate

Coconut Oil Chocolate
1/2 c coconut oil
1/2 c cocoa  (I like Hersheys best and I most commonly use the Special Dark)
Pinch of stevia (flavors are great!)
1 tsp Agave or more to taste (flavors are great)
...it doesnt take much of either.
Add ins:  Pecans, Macadamias, Cashews, Cayenne pepper, unsweetened Coconut flakes, Cranberries,  or Peanut Butter.  (Realize these extras are not the same kind of fat as the coconut oil, they do count as fat!) 
Usually I stir this in a bowl that is setting in a sauce pan of hot water, if you stir very very well the agave won't settle to the bottom when hardened.
An icecube tray works great to pour the chocolate into, you can set this in the freezer or fridge to harden.
You can strictly use Stevia or strictly Agave or a combination of the two to sweeten your chocolate! In either case it is natural & low glycemic and a great way to get that Coconut oil in your system!  Its a great skin anti-aging system!!  Try to eat 2 to 4 T a day!
