Step by Step Method
Step 1
Melt coconut oil over a very low heat. Remove from heat. (If you heat over too high of a heat or don’t remove from the heat, the coconut oil will separate from the carob when cooling. You can still eat it, but it won’t be as smooth.)
Step 2
Stir in carob, sweetener, and vanilla. Pour mixture into a pan (8×8 works well).
Step 3
Place in refrigerator or freezer until solid. Remove from pan, and cut into chunks of desired size with a good, solid knife. Store in a cool place until ready to use.
