- Keto Chocolate Bar Recipe. How to make impressive low carb dessert
1 1/2 Cup - Cacao Butter
1 1/4 Cup - Cacao Powder
Sweetener to taste (I recommend Swerve Confectioners Powder)
1) Make a bain-marie by fitting a glass or ceramic bowl over a saucepan of water. Do not let the bottom of the bowl touch the actual water. Bring the water to the boil then turn it down to a simmer. Very slowly melt the cacao butter in the bowl of the bain-marie. Take the cacao butter to no higher than 40-45°C/104-113°F. If you think it is getting too hot but hasn’t all melted, take it off the heat to finish melting. It is important not to overheat it or the chocolate will taste grainy and be ‘bloomed’, with a white cloudy appearance.
When the cacao butter has melted and is at around 40-45°C/104-113°F, add the rest of the ingredients. This should lower the temperature and we now want to bring it down to 28-30°C/82-86°F; just above or below will be fine.
2) Blend all the ingredients together with a hand-held blender to get rid of any cacao powder lumps and until velvety smooth and glossy. Do not over-blend or the chocolate will stiffen too much. If it is too stiff, place the bowl back over the hot water and stir gently for a minute or so then remove from the heat.
3) Keep stirring the chocolate gently to cool it then, when around 28-30°C/82-86°F, pour it into a silicon mold. Add your toppings. Then refrigerate until hard.
Toppings I used are:
- Sea salt and almond slices
- Instant coffee
- Orange oil and hot chili

Hey everyone. Links to the ingredients are in the discerption 😬🍫
Do they have to be refrigerated?
I hate dark chocolate can u make creamy milk chocolate please 🙏
Leif Carney no, I did just to set the chocolate. But after it sets, it is fine stored room temp.
Awesome! Thanks! Gonna make some tomorrow!
Can you add cream to make these milk chocolate?
Word to the wise, wash that silicone when you get it.
A releasing agent is used in the factory in order to pop them out of the cast they are poured into.
Not washing them contaminates whatever you are cooking in it with that releasing agent.
Or would that be "Word from the wise".
The wise already knew them... but why "TO the wise"?
it mean that you are wise for following it
That’s the first thing that came to mind when I seen he didn’t wash it like wtf it’s just common sense.
Yeah it's true. But it sure made for a fun action packed production to just cave man rip the package open and use it. By now, he has washed it for sure. : )
This is a myth, there is no potentially toxic coating on them.
Can't tell you how nice it is to get a recipe without twenty minutes of talking when I really just want the quick recipe. I've been making my chocolates for a while now and although I enjoy them in this hard form sometimes I add a bit of cream at the end of mixing to get a truffle like consistency. After pouring them in mold I put them in the freezer, later unmolding and putting them back into the freezer for an ice cream like cold treat or letting them warm for a truffle texture.
I would like to see that video !!! all the best, Monte
I would like to see the truffle variation as well!!
I put cream into but it not dissolve :(((
71160000 omg right!!!!!
Can I just say thank you for sharing a recipe without giving us your life story or telling us lengthy anecdotes about how you first encountered EVERY SINGLE INGREDIENTS. When people search for a recipe they just want the recipe, not a biopic. So thank you for this! Also looks amazing and simple.
Agreed! Unfortunately RUclips prefers the longer 10 min + videos.
Thanks! I make Keto chocolate often, but never tempering it. I just usually keep in the fridge till I want to eat it. This will be helpful! I'm currently on Round 2 of Keto (I did Round 1 in 2020 and dropped 70 lbs). I began Round 2 on May 9th, 2023 and it August 15th and I've dropped 22 lbs as of today. I have way more energy and my mood is stable.
BTW
I've been making your chocolate, love it. I've been on a Ketogenic diet with Intermittent Fasting for 3 months. I dropped 15 lbs, all my blood test results reversed. My Hemoglobin A1C dropped from 11 to 7. My fatty liver functions dropped from 112 down to 60 and my LDL cholesterol is even lower. My daily average fasting blood glucose is around 93, when it used to be up around 180. Thanks and keep the recipes coming.
My pleasure. You should share your story. Here is one of the best forums I've come across.
www.ketogenicforums.com/
Share your story with them -and don't forget to mention yours truly ;)
Congratulations, your numbers are great. I recently started the keto way of eating and looking forward to the results.
looking4excellence your testimony encourages me to be more consistent with my keto journey! And btw how much Swerve do you usually add to the cacao butter+powder mixture? I wanna start making these to fight my sweettooth cravings
Could you share with me how you do the diet? My triglycerides are in 400, and im just 41, and im 190 pounds.
I made some keto chocolate bars for myself and they are delicious. I used:
1/2 cup + 1/4 cup - Cacao butter
1/2 cup + 1/8 cup - Cacao powder
3 Tbsp - Swerve
1 tsp - Orange extract
a pinch of salt
how many carbs per serving?
*These keto chocolate bars look absolutely delicious! Can't wait to try making them at home.*
Simply heating the cocoa butter to a certain temperature won't temper the chocolate. It either needs to be quickly cooled while maintaining a high level of agitation, OR an easier method is to stir in a small amount of solid chocolate (tempered or untempered) as it's cooling. This introduces "seed crystals" to the mix which encourage formation of more beta crystals among the cocoa butter fats.
This turned out so good . I used stevia in powder form so it didn’t melt completely but did not taste bad. The cacao butter just melted in the mouth
You can blend the mix if powder does not dissolve, it comes out smooth♥️
Thank you for posting this! I haven't seen a tempering chocolate video as clear and concise as this one.
I'll definitely give it a try!
Right? I was surprised with how hard everyone makes it out to be!
@@TheKetoChef You should have made it clear to viewers that the bottom of the glass bowl should NOT touch the boiling water in the pan.
You can use a metal bowl, most chefs do. You just have to really watch it carefully as it can scorch much easier. Tempering is taking it up to a certain temp then dropping to a certain temp depending on what kind of chocolate you’re making. For anyone melting chocolate for say chocolate covered strawberries melt the chocolate then throw in a small chuck and stir.once it’s melted you an start dipping.
I will prepare it for my wife!
That’s awesome gmendibiru. I hope she loves it. (That pâté recipe is on the way💪🏼)
Sweet
Simp
Ignore the people calling you a Simp. Loving someone and doing something for them doesn't make you a Simp. You're very sweet for making stuff for your wife.
@@keegantheplayer apparently cooking for your wife makes you a simp smh
3 ingredient keto chocolate? What more can you ask for?! Awesome video. Thanks for the recipe!
I add soy isolate powder to add protein on it, peanut butter powder works too. The taste doesn't even change it's still chocolate, but now with added protein and B vitamins.
@@ccg2301 You know soy is toxic right!? All those phytoestrogens really knock your body out of hormonal balance, not to mention they're GMO.
@@chrismccaffrey8256 males need estrogen not near as much as women but if their levels are low it can cause health issues for both sexes. and the phytoestrogen in soy doesn’t actually increase the female sex hormone in males, it’s incredibly nutritious too.

You make everything look SO EASY and doable. Chocolate bars were a weakness for me, and I can crave them at any time. This recipe looks like something I need. ✌️
Bremusa I feel you. I take shortcuts ALL the time and you can’t do that with chocolate. Get a good thermometer and thick glass bowl. Keep it within temp and your Gucci
Dark chocolate & Raspberry work well too. Another combo I like is dark cherry Mio drops in the dark chocolate and another is PB Fit
We need a “wow” button here. It looks delicious. I saved this vid to try it. Thank you.
Wash it!!!!!! Omg my heart just dropped
I wash it every day! :/
Oh, come on!
@@lttrhd I'll wash it as fast as I like.
@@lttrhd 😅😅
What to do....he ate it.
One of the things that makes keto effective for some people is the lack of food variety. Bacon and fatty foods sure sound good but when you eat them day in and out you tend to lose your appetite for them and eat less and less hence more weight loss. When you start adding in all these keto fun desserts you reduce the effectiveness of keto as you cause people to eat more.
I had a go with this today, I found I needed to sieve the Cacao Powder to knock any lumps out before adding. The big mistake I made was not grinding the sweetener (UK - Truvia) granules enough so although the chocolate is smooth, there is some grittiness from the sweetener. I think I may get some liquid Stevia to use instead. I added some dairy to a few samples (only had thick Greek yogurt around) which didn't affect it setting at all so I may experiment with some heavy cream to see how far I can push it towards milk chocolate and still have a set texture. Useful video as a starter!
A sample made with some smooth added wholemeal peanut butter is really good, still set fine but not as dark tasting, almost a bit 'creamy' and very tasty.
I added a half cup of coconut oil to mine and cupcake liners and a muffin tin for mine with cashews at the bottom of each one. They where good.
You can make a really nice chocolate very quickly by melting a cup of coconut oil in the microwave for 20 or 30 seconds or so then add 2 or 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder or more depending on how dark you want your chocolate and as much powdered erythritol as you like for your taste. Pour into moulds.That’s it, simple. We often added shredded coconut or peanuts, almonds or chopped macadamias. Delicious, simple and keto. Store in the fridge or freezer.
This chocolate of yours deserve a startup! This is a exceptional product!
Starting my keto journey tomorrow, as a sugar/chocolate junkie I'm so glad I found your channel.
Can't wait to try making this and adding matcha to some bars.
Matcha sounds good. Maybe hold off on the coco and do a white chocolate base
U are amazing with your skills brother. I've been following keto diet since a month now and I've struggled in order to find variety of food to eat.
You've made my life easier. Great work.. kudos to you and your channel. Keep it up 😊👍
Thank you sir. Welcome. Let me know if you have any request.
Duuude this video is the best one I have come across for keto chocolate!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you, Keto Chef❣️❣️❣️ I’m in love with your work and you have culinary swag❗️
Vanetta Pinn culinary swag! Thank you.
Any chance we could get the ingredient measurements by weight? This looks really awesome.
My chocolate addiction is what kept me from going full keto (well, that and I like a beer every once in a while; where is the keto-friendly beer brewing video? 😂). This recipe is going to change the game for me. Thanks! 😎👍
Add macadamias or pecans for a super tasty keto treat
or pistachios!! yum
Only macadamia's I suggest, almost all other nuts have inflammatory fatty acid ratios
www.caltonnutrition.com/nuts/ @@monikakay9184
@@Tomorrow_Big thanks for the info!!
You're welcome. I too enjoy pistachio's, they used to be my favorite nuts, so I have mixed feelings sharing this info, but having a healthy gut and no more cramps is worth missing out on the taste for me! @@monikakay9184
omg thank you!!!!! I've been trying to do keto and the lack of sweets are what make me crack every time.
Of course. (same here. gummy worms are my weakness)
The Keto Chef
You can get sugar free gummy worms, I mean gelatin is a protein, try them seriously I dare you and film the result
I made yesterday .It came out really good .I used little more sugar 3/4 cup and I used monk fruit sweetener .Good testing chocolate .
i was about to buy a keto chocolate bar from a health store but i'm really glad i saw this video.i'll definitely try this receipe,thanks for this😊
To melt cacao butter or coconut butter - use a dehydrator or yogurt maker - lot easier than ban marie & thermometer.
i made these,really great,i did sea salt and almonds but i put these in mold first,then poured the chocolate over them
MMM crunchy stuff on the bottom!
I'm preparing to start a keto diet, but the hardest thing for me to give up is sweets, especially chocolate. You've saved me from ruining my diet thanks to this recipe, thanks so much!
i have found that when i dont eat as many carbs now my hankering for sweets has reduced yipee along with inflammation in my joints which is a bonus so now i am trying to make an alternative to bread
You can do it. Use intermittent fasting as much as you can. Sugar cravings go away 👍
I love this! I love how you really broke down the technique here and explained why and how you did everything. I'm excited both for the basic recipe and for all the ways I'm already thinking about playing around with it
Yes. Exactly. Get creative! lmk what you make? tag me on insta if you have it. I'd love to see it.
@@TheKetoChef I don't have insta, but I'm thinking kind of tropical like a coconut macadamia. I also have an idea to cook down some raspberries and freeze them in a smaller mold, then drop them in the center for like a berry filled chocolate, or maybe playing around with something like a sugar-free hazelnut marzipan. I'm also exited to try the coffee and orange chili ones you did. Not sure what will work but I'll let you know when I finally get this cocoa butter in the mail!
New to Keto here and I love my chocolate! I am sooo glad I found this channel and recipe !! Gonna try 😊😊
Awesome recipe .. all of you recipes are cool .. a fan here
Just made these, they were good, but I think I will try all liquid Sweetner next time, the powdered sweetener does leave a slight gritty texture when eating, thanx for taking the time for the video.
Interesting. Thanks for the feedback. I'll try liquid sweetener. What did you use, stevia?
You could take Allulose or Monkfruit and grind it into confectionery powder, that will get rid of the gritty texture, and I like the taste better than Erythritol, which has that cool taste (like eating a Certz), not really sweet.
Thank you for such a detailed and well made video. You covered the pitfalls one can make, helping us make a beautiful looking and great mouth feel product, we can take pride saying I made this for you etc
oh my goodness! this looks so good. I have cacao butter in my pantry ready to go, so I'm definitely making this.
Lol glad to see I am not the only one wondering why he did not wash that silicone tray!
I would use sucralose, Walmart's knock-off of Splenda. It doesn't trigger a reaction in diabetics so I consider it to be low-carb/keto. It has zero calories and tastes much better than any other sugar substitute (being cracked off of the actual sugar molecule.
Quemielle DuChesne SUCRALOSE also happens to be a known neurotoxin unfortunately...
Orange oil and chili? U are a genious!
This was amazing! Why the hell would anyone give this a thumbs down! Thank you.
Thanks for this got a great result. Cant belive I made chocolate this good. I did some with dryed blueberrys really good
awesome ! thank you so much ! you absolutely saved me from cheating on my keto for these pieces of heaven ! now I have these instead of sugary chocolates at the mall!
I am salivating as I write this. Just went keto, and MAN do sweet treats like these serve as the light at the end of the tunnel :)
Wow!!!! Good job. thanks Jennifer 😄
I’m subscribing for the use of chandler Bing gif 👌🏼
First time watching your video and you got a subscriber. Thank you for sharing this simple recipe for chocolate 🙏 it looks delish, will give it a go over the weekend ❤️
I made my own chocolate with this recipe and made peanut butter cups out of it and they came out great. I feel like I had to use too much erythritol to make it tolerable though. Thankfully, just one pb cup is satisfying.
Great video 👍🏻👍🏻
Orange, sea salt and almonds are awesome with chocolate.
Thank you Mad Skills
The Keto Chef
Your welcome 🙏
Just subscribed to your channel. Love all your recipes. I've been Keto since February and I've lost 45 lbs. I've really missed chocolate, so I'm
very happy I found this!
Wow 45 lbs amazing! let me know if you try it.
Thanks for adding all the info in the description , also in Celsius and ratio its super helpfull! = )
So glad to find this. Love chocolate. Thx
Great job, definitely will be doing these for the family 😎 Thanks, Rob!
Mary Smith of course! I hope they like it. Let me know how it turns out
Looks yummy, and I love the gold foil presentation. This would make an excellent gift for my hubby :)
Ok I just fell in love.....best filming best recipe best ever keto voice...love it new sub! Keep it coming!
I followed the recipe exactly but wanted it slightly lighter so I added double cream to make it more of a ganache but was very, very happy with the results.
Can I please ask that you look up how to say the French words. It’s not that important but it sounds a little better.
You are a perfectionist confectionist! Thank you!!
It's good that you didn't wash the mold before purring in the chocolate!
Not only are these chocolates good to look at but so are you.
Awesome! I love the idea of cacao butter.
Looks easy, definitely going to give it a go.
Thanks very much for sharing
my pleasure. Tag me on insta if you took a photo. I'd love to see what you made.
It's cool to watch such a videos at post-USSR countries, where we usually don't have cocoa butter, erythritol, swerve etc. or have it only in big shopping malls for a high price, located in an hour-drive from home. If you want to order it from ihearb or smth else, the delivery will cost half a price of an already expensive product or even more. Oh yeah, plus we have a tax for parcels more than 22€, which may cost like delivery]
And that's in the capital of our country, i don't even want to know, what's in the other cities
Kogda bombanoolo...
Excellent I subbed straight away when i saw this. Well done this is inspiring.. will definately check out your other vids. Good for keto good for diabectics and when you are trying to figure out how to give kids sweets without the bad stuff😁

Thanks for the recipe and we are waiting for a white keto chocolate as well. 😉
Today i made this. Awesome! My fa mily loves it! Thankyou
gmendiburu I’m really glad you made it! Even happier that your family liked it!
Stevia sucks i agree. I linked to the stuff i use. Get the confectioners type.
Swerve Sweetener: amzn.to/2iNPeg3
The Keto Chef in Perú i found a mix between Stevia and "Yacon" Google it...
Sounds similar to jicama but sweeter I'm guessing?
That is beautiful! Thank you for helping me understand tempering.
the pleasure was all mine.
Kelihatannya mudah ya.... Bahan bahannya mahal, terutama swerve, yaaah..... Layak untuk dicoba 👍
I just sub2ur channel..WOW..I hve to tell u I’m sooooo happy I found u..I cant wait to make ur professional looking beautifully made chocolates..It bought me to almost tears😀to see how wonderfully u presented the making of ur yummy chocolates..Going buy all that u suggested even look for the wrappers, what a great added touch. Your chocolates r the best looking Keto chocolates Ive seen..
Now its time for me to do a marathon viewing of all ur vids, I’m sure they’re beautifully presented...
Huge hugs beautiful person😊thx 4all u do..
Turned out really nice, like a deep dark chocolate. Made some plain, some with almonds, and some with cashews.
That sounds awesome
Love it!! I Love that you go the extra mile!
I laughed out loud twice at this video, something I never donon RUclips anymore. Thanks bro!
Made this today, didnt end up getting it tempered properly but it was still really nice, thanks for the recipe bud ;)
Very easy steps
And looks amaaaaazing. Thanks
absolutely amazing!!! im obsessed. this is fantastic!!
Those look amaZing....can't wait to make!! Thank you❤️❤️🌟
This is so AWESOME!! Thank you for posting this!
This video is old, but I'll still comment because I am making my own chocolate bars. Thank you.
How did they turn out?? Did you do anything different?
Wow love this video! So to the point and easy! ❤
Thanks for this vid! Will definitely be making this.
a pinch of salt helps with bitterness. same with coffee. smallest pinch of salt to taste. it will get sweeter and then salty pretty quickly so tiny bits at a time. Xo
I'm glad I saw this video in my suggestions. Subscribed.
Oh wow! Thanks for sharing. Looks and sounds really good
Of course.
This chocolate looks divine, definitely I’m going to try. Just wondering if I can use cacao mass/ liquor instead of cocoa powder. Thank you 😊
Incredible keto chocolate and the sexiest chef on RUclips
omg.. keto chocolate..oooh, slow it down... *shivers*
look awesome!! I'm gonna have to try ,Great job!!
You should give micro nutrition content also. In keto it's very much necessary
its literally just cacao butter... check out the macros for cacao butter and you got it
Super good video man. Keep it up. I would add a taste test at the end to sort of guide me to something I would try. Other than that great vid
Love your flavor ideas!
if you don't want to mess with mortal pestle for grind down granulated swerve, use a coffee grinder with fine setting
Wow! Nice! Thank you!
