Hi, just found a sugar free chocolate recipe that you might like.
125grams copha
50grams cocoa
30grams full milk powder
80 to 100grams dextrose ( I used 90)
you can add nuts, vanilla, coconut or anything else you like

mix dry ingredients together, then add melted copha.
put in baking paper lined baking dish. Pop in the fridge to set.
 Yummy!!

You could just use coconut oil.

Copha is hydrogenated coconut oil, so it's a bad trans-fat.

Home made nut chocolate

60g coconut oil  

2 tblpns organic rice malt syrup

2 tblpns milk powder

3 tblspns cocoa

1 tspn vanilla essence

lots of any sort of nuts

Just melt coconut oil (won't take much) then add the rest - refrigerate.

 

I tried this one and it turned out nice and hard, but I did keep it in the fridge.

Hi, Nadine, I looked it up too, and it's 98% saturated fat, so, no, it's definitely not good for you!!

Now I know why I avoided it all these years since I came to Oz.

Hi silver Angel,

Coconut oil may be saturated fat, but it is good saturated fat.  We eat heaps of organic virgin coconut oil. We don't eat copha though as it is hydroginated coconut oil.
Just google the benefits of coconut oil, it is full of goodness. Here is one article http://www.organicfacts.net/organic-oils/organic-coconut-oil/health-benefits-of-coconut-oil.html
