5 cups Shredded Coconut (finely shredded, unsweetened)

6 tablespoons Raw Cacao Powder

pinch of Real Salt

2 tablespoons Coconut Oil

5 tablespoons Real Maple Syrup

1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

1-2 drops Food-Grade Peppermint Essential Oil

Crushed Candy Canes, if not making a paleo version

Place the shredded coconut in a high speed blender, like a Vitamix. Turn the blender on to the lowest setting and process the coconut for a few minutes, until it starts to turn into coconut butter. There should still be pieces of shredded coconut, but the mass should start to be turning into a 'nut' butter consistancy.
Add the remaining ingredients
