Home Made Molded Chocolates:

Basic ingredients:

Unsweetened dark chocolate (100% cocoa bars)
Agave nectar

Choose one of the following additions:
Organic unsweetened peanut butter/ almond butter
Chopped nuts
Plain brown rice cereal
Peppermint extract

Melt chocolate down over low heat (preferably in a double boiler, but a small pot works just as well) and sweeten to taste with agave nectar. Mix in extract, cereal or nuts if desired.

Spoon the melted chocolate into little candy cups.
If you choose to add nut butter; fill the cup half way with chocolate, add a dollop of nut butter and then fill the cup to the top with more chocolate.

Place the cups on a wax-paper-covered cookie tray and place in freezer until chocolates are set.

For gift-giving, you can put these in boxes or use decorative mini Chinese food cartons--I love those! Almost everyone I know is THRILLED to receive chocolate, especially the kind that you put your love and time into creating for them...
