For the chocolate 

 1 cup organic coconut oil (melted/liquid)
 1/2 cup organic raw cacao powder

 1/2 teaspoon organic vanilla extract 



PREPARATION 

1. Add all the ingredients for the creme filling in a food processor and process until smooth and creamy.

3. Using a chocolate mold or ice cube tray, spoon a tablespoon of chocolate topping into each mold.

4. Add a tablespoon of the creme filling on top of the bottom chocolate layer (see Tip #1 below for another option). 

5. Add another tablespoon of chocolate topping on top of the creme filling (see Tip #1 below for another option).

6. Put in the freezer for approximately 20 – 30 minutes or until hardened (see Tip #1 below for another option).

NOTES If you want them to be "pretty" without the strawberry creme showing through the bottom and have a solid chocolate appearance on the exterior, follow these instructions: 

 After you pour the bottom layer of chocolate, put them in the freezer for about 10 - 15 minutes or until the chocolate hardens. 

Then pour the strawberry creme center on top and put it back in the freezer for 10 - 15 minutes or until it hardens.

 Then pour the top layer of chocolate and return them to the freezer for another 10 - 15 minutes.
