How to Make Chocolate Edibles with Coconut Oil

Who doesn’t love chocolate, and who doesn’t love a good edible? This chocolate edible recipe will have you feeling good and craving more! And the best part is that the recipe is easy to make, especially when you use the LEVO II to infuse your coconut oil with hemp flower.

Key Takeaways

1. Streamlined Infusion Process: The LEVO II oil and butter infuser automates and simplifies the process of infusing coconut oil with hemp flower, making it easy and mess-free. This advanced machine allows you to control the infusion's potency by adjusting the time and temperature settings, ensuring that your chocolate edibles are as strong as you desire.

2. Enhanced Potency with Quality Ingredients: For more potent chocolate edibles, start with high-quality, coarse-ground hemp or medicinal flower. The LEVO II facilitates a thorough extraction of active ingredients without the need for manual preparation, increasing the effectiveness and strength of your infused coconut oil.

3. Efficient Chocolate Making with Infused Coconut Oil: Incorporate your LEVO II-infused coconut oil into melted chocolate using a double boiler method for smooth, even blending. This ensures that the potency of your medicinal ingredients is maintained throughout the cooking process, resulting in stronger and more effective chocolate edibles.

4. Proper Storage for Maximum Potency: Store your finished chocolate edibles in the refrigerator or freezer to preserve their potency and freshness. Avoid reheating infused chocolates in the microwave, as this can degrade the medicinal properties infused into the coconut oil.

The Benefits of Infused Oil

One of the best ways to incorporate more herbs into your food and other goods for your wellness is to infuse them into oils and carriers without having to worry about consuming the herb in its natural form. Infused oils have become more popular as people have taken their wellness into their own hands. Natural foods stores across the country are selling infused oils, butters, and other goods, but many of them can run you a pretty penny. Enter LEVO II.

FAQ

How do I ensure my chocolate edibles are potent when using the LEVO II?

To maximize potency, use high-quality, coarsely ground medicinal flower or hemp in your LEVO herb pod. Set the LEVO II to the optimal temperature using the time and temperature calculator available on our website, ensuring that the infusion extracts maximum potency from your herbs. The finer control over the infusion process with LEVO II means more potent and effective edibles.

What are the best carrier oils to use with the LEVO II for making chocolate edibles?

Coconut oil is highly recommended for chocolate edibles due to its solid consistency at room temperature and its ability to blend well with chocolate. However, you can also use other fats like butter or MCT oil if you prefer. The LEVO II efficiently infuses any of these carriers, allowing you to customize your edibles to your dietary needs and flavor preferences.

How can I avoid common issues like uneven melting or clumping in my chocolate edibles?

Ensure that the chocolate is melted slowly over medium-low to low heat to prevent it from becoming clumpy and dry. Stir continuously and gently to promote even melting. If using chocolate chips, note that they may not melt completely and could retain some of their shape, which is normal. Avoid overheating to maintain the smooth texture of your chocolate.

Is there a way to store my chocolate edibles to maintain their freshness and potency?

Yes, once your chocolate edibles have set in the molds, transfer them to an airtight container or a ziplock bag and store them in the refrigerator or freezer. This keeps them fresh and preserves the potency of the infused oil. Avoid reheating the chocolates in the microwave as this can degrade the potency of the infused medicinal properties.

Directions

Infused Coconut Oil

1. Take your medicinal flower or favorite hemp and place it into the LEVO herb pod. There’s no need to grind it, but if you choose to, be sure not to grind it too finely. It needs to be coarse enough not to seep into your oil. Coarser herbs also infuse better.

2. Place the LEVO herb pod into the LEVO II reservoir.

3. Measure 16 oz. of coconut oil. If the coconut oil is solid, as is common, you can use a kitchen scale to measure out 16 oz. or 2 cups.

4. Place the measured coconut oil into the LEVO II reservoir with your flower. Close the LEVO II lid.

5. Using the time and temperature calculator on our site, set the temperature on your LEVO II to 170°F. Infuse your coconut oil in the LEVO II up to 5 hours, depending on the time suggested for medicinal hemp on the time and temperature calculator.

6. Using the LEVO herb press to squeeze the extra infused oil from the medicinal flower or hemp, pour your warm infused coconut oil into a container. Be sure the container has a proper seal so that the coconut oil won’t spoil.

7. Keep your infused coconut oil in your cabinet, or you can freeze it.

Chocolate Edibles with Medicinal Hemp-Infused Coconut Oil

1. Using a double boiler, fill the bottom pot with 1 cup of water. Boil water on high heat.

2. Set the heat at medium-low to low, and place 2 cups of chocolate into the top double boiler pot. The steam from the bottom of the double boiler will melt the chocolate above.

3. Gently stir as the chocolate begins to melt, and continue stirring occasionally while the chocolate melts, for about 5 minutes or until the chocolate is fully melted.

4. Add 4 tablespoons of your flower-infused coconut oil to the pot with the chocolate. (If using the Levo Herb Blocks, use 1 and ⅓ blocks of oil.)

5. Continue stirring until the mixture is completely melted and combined.

6. Remove the pot containing the chocolate from the pot containing the boiling water and set it aside.

7. Pour or scoop the chocolate out of the pot into your molds. You can use whichever molds you like, we love our Gummy and Candy molds. To remove any air bubbles from your molds, gently tap the molds with your hand or against the counter.

8. Place molds in the freezer or fridge for approximately 15 minutes.

9. After the molds set, remove your flower-infused chocolates from the molds and place them in your desired storage container or a ziplock bag. To keep fresh, store the chocolate edibles in the fridge or freezer.

Recipe Note

• If you molded your flower-infused chocolate edibles and keep them refrigerated or frozen, DON’T melt them in the microwave. Melting your chocolate will ruin the potency of the medicinal flower that you infused in your coconut oil.
• If you notice your chocolate chips aren’t melting entirely, don’t worry. Many chocolate chips do not melt completely and may maintain some of their shape.
• Don’t rush the melting. Your chocolate should melt on medium-low to low heat so that the chocolate doesn’t turn out clumpy and dry.
