Description
Dark chocolate and coffee come together to make the perfect Mocha Granola!
Ingredients
- ½ cups Coconut Oil
- ½ cups Honey
- 3 Tablespoons Special Dark Chocolate Cocoa Powder
- 1 Tablespoon Instant Coffee Powder
- 2-½ cups Old Fashioned Oats
- ¼ cups Mini Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Combine coconut oil and honey in a medium size mixing bowl. Microwave 45 seconds or until coconut oil is melted. Add cocoa powder and espresso/coffee powder and stir mixture until well dissolved. Add oats and stir mixture until all of the oats are completely covered in the chocolate coffee mixture.
Grab a large rimmed baking sheet, line it with foil and spray foil with cooking spray. Spread oats mixture thinly and evenly across the baking sheet.
Bake for 10 minutes, stir mixture and bake for 10 more minutes. Remove oats from oven, let them cool about 10 minutes, and while still warm sprinkle half of the chocolate chips over the granola mixture (it will melt onto the granola and make these fantastic clusters). Then when the granola is completely cool add the rest of the chocolate chips. Store in an airtight container
Note: This recipe isn’t very good with regular unsweetened cocoa powder. For best results use the Hershey’s Special Dark Chocolate cocoa powder.
