Living Rawesome Day #149 Chocolate Wrappers pg. 90 entertaining in the raw
December 21, 2009
Today I made some graham crackers for Jason and some of his employees at work. They turned out beautiful. The pictures will be posted on Day #148.
I was so excited to make the chocolate wrappers. This meal is going to be delicious. Jason and I are going to go Christmas shopping tomorrow and then hopefully we will be able to sit down after shopping and enjoy this bitter broccoli ravioli and pine nut “cheese” with chocolate wrappers.
The wraps turned out so much better having the teflex sheets. I wouldn’t recommend doing these without the teflex sheets. I have used parchment paper and they turned out crinkly and they crack. Jason opened the coconuts for me before he went to work. I placed the 2 cups of coconut meat into the Vita-mix and 4 T cacao powder with salt.
This blended up well, considering how little the measurements are. It took a little longer to blend but it worked. I placed it on the teflex sheet and spread it out to a thin even consistency.
After 4 hours they were done. It was easy to lift the wrappers off the teflex sheet. I did turn them around to dry a few minutes without the sheet. I was not perfect in spreading out the wraps but I tried. They turned out good enough for me:)
On this picture you can see the wet parts that still need to dry.

We also made cookies and decorated them. I had fun with Sabby making the cookies and then decorating them.
