Chocolate Every Day: 85+ Plant-Based Recipes for Cacao Treats That Support Your Health and Well-Being

In this creative, health-minded take on a sweet treat, Coffey and Keenan, cofounders of Not Your Sugar Mamas chocolate company, helpfully compile more than 85 inspired chocolate recipes that strip the treat’s traditional additives in order to reap the healthfulness of cacao beans. The authors rely on raw cacao and other superfoods to produce healthy renditions of chocolate staples: coconut flour and oat flour help form the cake base for tiramisu; maple syrup sweetens almond butter cups (the authors’ version of the Reese’s candy); and coconut milk and cashews add a perfect amount of creaminess for fudgesicles. Other highlights include mint chocolate chip smoothies, churro waffles with chocolate dipping sauce, brownie trifle with caramelized bananas, and crunchy salty peanut butter chocolate tart. With fruit and nut ingredients, such as orange zest for chocolaty orange scones, pomegranate seeds for chocolate bark, and peanut butter and honey frosting for chocolate cupcakes, this book is filled with dozens of wonderful flavor combinations. Readers who wish to improve their diet while satisfying their sweet tooth will enjoy this. Agent: Angela Miller, the Miller Agency. (June)
