Equipment
- High-powered blender
Ingredients
- 1 cup walnuts
- 1 cup cold water
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (reduce to 1 tablespoon for a lower-sugar version)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup chopped dark chocolate (approximately 6 oz)
Instructions
- Add 1 cup walnuts, 1 cup cold water, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon sea salt to a high-powered blender.
- Blend until smooth and creamy, with no walnut chunks remaining.
- Melt 1 cup chopped dark chocolate using your preferred method:
- Stovetop: Add the chopped dark chocolate to a pan over low heat. Stir constantly until just melted, then remove from the heat. Microwave: Heat in 20-second bursts, stirring between each, until melted.
- Transfer the melted chocolate to the blender.
- Blend until smooth.
- Transfer to a container and chill for 30 minutes before serving. See notes below for details about longer-term storage.
Notes
- Store in the fridge for up to three days, but note that the texture becomes firmer (similar to cheesecake) the longer it’s chilled.
