People ask what I miss since going vegan; most assume it’s bacon or cheese. I don’t really miss either. Definitely not bacon. I admit there are days I do miss cheese a bit, but then I think about the reality of what those 3 minutes of cheese eating means to baby cows. To me it’s just not worth it. One thing I do miss? CHOCOLATE BARS!! lol. Most mainstream chocolate bars contain dairy. I’m not a baker, but I have given a go at a few chocolate bars over the last while and here’s the one I did yesterday. The quickest recipe yet! I’ll definitely be posting more of them, so stay tuned! Who doesn’t love munching on a chocolate bar when they’ve developed the munchies????? I’ve yet to meet anyone to answer now to that!

Vegan Homemade ‘Kit Kat’ Bar:

These probably shouldn’t even get an entire page to themselves, they are so simple to make, but I’m making a bunch of home-cooked meals to fundraise for myself while I’m off work, so posting a short one so I can focus on that!

Ingredients:

• package of vegan wafers (I found some Voortman kinds are!)
• 1 /2 – 1 C vegan chocolate (depending on how many wafers you use, I made the whole pack, so 1 C)
• 1 Tbsp coconut oil (use less if you don’t use the whole package!)

Directions:

1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a double broiler (or if you’re like me, and don’t have one, in a metal bowl, resting on top of a smaller pot of boiling water), melt chocolate and oil, mixing together.
3. Once melted, drop a wafer in and coat with chocolate. I used a spoon to flip and pour chocolate. Use spoon to lift out, allow as much to drip off as possible and place on baking sheet.
4. Repeat until they are all done.
5. Pour a bit more chocolate over wafers that may need some help.
6. Place in fridge (or freezer!) until hardened.
7. Enjoy!
