Steps:
- Add all ingredients to a food processor and blend to combine until completely smooth, scraping down sides as needed.
- Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more carob powder for "chocolate" flavor or sweetness, maca powder for caramel flavor, salt for saltiness, vanilla for vanilla flavor, or coconut butter for creaminess. If it appears too liquidy, add an additional 1 Tbsp (9 g // as recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size) coconut flour. You're looking for a pourable liquid, but not too watery.
- Pour into cupcake liner molds, a lined loaf pan, or silicone chocolate molds like these or these, and let cool until firm. Depending on the temperature of your home, they may solidify at room temperature. If not, carefully transfer to the refrigerator until firm. Then remove from molds and enjoy. Because coconut butter chilled has some texture, don't be worried if the tops of your bars have a bit of ridging to them - that's totally normal!
- Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for 1 month or longer. Let thaw slightly before enjoying for best texture.

COCONUT-PECAN COOKIES
This is a buttery coconut-pecan cookie. The crunch comes from the pecans and coconut, but the cookie itself is chewy. I do not add salt to this recipe, as I think with salted butter enough salt is present.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350. Stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, coconut, sugar and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine the maple syrup, extracts, and oil, then stir in the carob chips and tasted pecans.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir just until they're well combined (don't overmix!).
- Spoon the batter onto a nonstick or parchment paper-lined sheet, flattening each just a little. Bake for 9-12 minutes, until lightly golden (any longer and you risk drying them out). Let cool for about 1 minute on the sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Note: I always use the spelt flour, but Zaar doesn't recognize it so I put the white flour as the first option for nutritional accuracy. I put regular salt rather than sea salt for the same reason.

Tips:
- Use unsweetened carob powder: This will help to keep the cookies from being too sweet.
- Toast the coconut and pecans: This will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant.
- Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies to keep their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set: Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving: This will allow them to firm up and develop their full flavor.
