Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons soft room-temperature tolerated butter or homemade ghee spreadable, not melted or cold

  • Stainless-steel spoon
  • Small spatula, optional
  • Small stainless strainer, optional

Method
 

  1. Put the soft room-temperature butter or homemade ghee, cocoa powder and raw honey in a small glass or ceramic bowl or mug. Add the optional mineral salt and homemade vanilla extract if using.
    Two tablespoons soft butter, one tablespoon cocoa and one tablespoon raw honey before mixing

Notes

Later Full GAPS: Pure organic cocoa is occasional only after digestive symptoms are gone.
Fat: Use tolerated butter or homemade ghee at soft room temperature. Do not melt it.
Scaling: The 2x control gives 4 tablespoons fat, 2 tablespoons cocoa, 2 tablespoons raw honey, up to 2 drops optional homemade vanilla and 2 servings. The optional mineral salt remains a small pinch to taste rather than an automatic doubled mound.
Storage: Refrigerate covered up to 7 days or freeze up to 3 months. Thaw chilled and stir after softening at room temperature.
