Let's get to know our white chocolate ingredients: Powdered sugar, raw cashew butter, powdered
sugar, powdered soy milk
Cacao Butter
Himalayan Rock Salt
Vanilla Extract
Peppermint Extract
The funny thing is that white chocolate isn't even real chocolate
it's not even facebook friends with chocolate...
it's not even Linked IN 3rd connection with chocolate
the only thing that kind of makes it look a little bit like chocolate is the raw cacao
butter that we're going to use
which isn't really even chocolate it's just the fat taken out of the cocoa bean
so we're going to take this cacao butter over to the double-boiler and
melt it, like I melt my enemies
place your cacoa in a hot pot
so you might be thinking, ooooo great I should stick my finger in here and give it a little
try huh?
However, cacao butter actually tastes nothing like chocolate, it tastes like, uh...
poison
the only thing that makes white chocolate kind of taste like chocolate is the large
amounts of sugar and the vanilla extract we're going to add to it
I'm melting melting (in witch voice)
add your butter
to your blender, now all you have to do is add the rest of your ingredients
oh, I made a mess
isn't it weird that powdered sugar actually looks like snow, which means I actually didn't
make a mess
I just made it more festive
ha ha ha, ooooh
I think we'll, oooh, oh wow.
That was excessive
whoops
In my fantasies of you at home, you're doing this a lot more gracefully than I am
So we have here a cup of cacao butter, a cup of powdered sugar, we are now adding half
a cup of cashew butter
and then we're going to add a pinch of salt
just a small pinch, salt really brings out the flavor of chocolate naturally the thing
with this recipe is that you have to do it fairly quickly because your cacao butter will
start to harden
which I think mine has a little bit
so use your magic bullet and whizz it up really quick
this is done, it's ready to go, there's a couple ways that you can use this now.
You can line a cookie sheet with parchement paper
put it in the fridge and allow it to harden
or you can use it in a different recipe
now you can head over to the peppermint bark recipe and see how I used this in a fun way
so line your cookie sheet with parchment paper and then you just have to pour your chocolate
on it
it's that easy
(magic pixie dust white chocolate pouring sound)
okay so you want to put this in the freezer for about an hour or 2
hopefully your freezer is bigger than mine
so we're in the back room because my freezer is too small
we have this wonderful freezer here
check out the chocolate
rock hard
I'll join you back in the kitchen when this is ready
After like an hour, you have this!
look at all this white chocolate
holy moly man
so there's couple ways you can do this
you can just break it
you can break it into pieces
with a spoon
this is always a fun way of doing it like a little hammer
mmmm so good
now I like to serve these when I have people over over the holidays
you can stick it on a plate or in a bowl
that's one way to do it, I like to also wrap it as you can see here
so just pile them up
like 5 or 6
and then just wrap the crate paper around
and then get a little bow and twine is always nice as well
by bow I meant ribbon
and now you know how to make vegan white chocolate at home
and it's super easy
don't buy those stupid rabbits, or santa clauses, this doesn't have to be a christmas recipe,
it could be an easter recipe
it could be an anytime recipe
It can be a break up recipe
we've all been there
so merry christmas, or happy hannukah or happy kwanza, or "you didn't need him anyway"
whatever it is that you're celebrating, have some chocolate
eating a plant-based diet can be hard, so make sure that you subscribe to the Edgy Veg
for new videos every Monday
Just like this guy, or check out the vegan recipes playlist right here, eat your heart
out, with plants
find this task to be tasking, but I think grating a potato, is great
