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.

RAW CAROB BARK
I think I got this recipe from "The Maker's Diet" by Jordan Rubin. It's pretty good and it is raw, but with the honey it is not vegan. You could always substitute sweeteners to make it vegan.

Tips:
- To make the carob chips or bark, you will need raw carob powder, coconut oil, and a sweetener of your choice. You can also add other ingredients, such as nuts, seeds, or dried fruit, for extra flavor and texture.
- Before you start, make sure that your carob powder is raw. Roasted carob powder will not work for this recipe.

- If you are adding nuts or seeds to your carob chips or bark, be sure to chop them finely so that they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Once you have mixed all of the ingredients together, spread the mixture evenly onto a baking sheet. You can use a spoon or a spatula to do this.
- Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let the mixture harden for at least 2 hours. Once it is hard, you can break it into pieces and enjoy it.
Conclusion:
Raw carob chips or bark is a delicious and healthy snack that is easy to make at home. It is a good source of fiber, antioxidants, and minerals. You can enjoy it on its own or use it as a topping for yogurt, oatmeal, or smoothies.
