I have actually started using the coconut bark as a pick me up! One T in the am before work, and another in the evening when I get home. With a 2 yr old and a teething infant, Im tired!
I just wish It wasnt so expensive. Well, there is a whole foods just up the street from where I work, before I had to get it from somewhere super exotic. Maybe they will have more selection and better prices. Because Im almost out! And Im pretty much sold on the health benefits, if not the weight loss thing yet...but then Im only 3 weeks in. But man, it sure is nice to have a dark chocolate "candy" that melts on your tongue the same way a godiva truffle used to. I am SO going to experiment with this.
Whats more, I dont have a mouth full of grease after its gone, as one would expect. Im reminded of that posh nosh episode, watching Simon do tasting of olive oils. YUCK!
Im just doing this: Melt a big scoop of coconut oil and measure out 4 T. Melt one square of baking chocolate in measuring cup, and mix in melted oil. mix in packet of splenda, and pour into 4 flat molds (Im using baby food cups). Of all the extra cooking prep Im doing for LC, this is probably the easiest.
