In separate bowl mix together / set aside:

• 2 cups Lady Jane Toasted Hemp Seeds w/Sea Salt*
• 1 cup unsweetened organic coconut
• 2 cups chopped dried cherries

• 1 cup organic cane sugar                                                                              
• 1/2 cup coconut oil (or dairy free butter substitute)         
• 1/2 cup organic coconut milk beverage                                           
• ½ Cups dark cocoa powder (cacao)*
•  2 tsp vanilla extract

1. Mix together sugar, butter, coconut milk and cocoa in 3-quart saucepan. Bring to a boil over low heat and boil for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring constantly.
2. Remove from heat and add vanilla.   
3. Stir in dry mixture of Jane’s Toasted Hemp Seeds, coconut & chopped cherry mixture.  Mix well by hand.
4. Drop by spoonful on waxed paper.  Let cool, refrigerate.  (*dried cranberries can be used)

*cacao has many nutritional benefits verses cocoa, when using cacao, I've been told it’s best to not mix with any dairy products as the nutrition is compromised.

We suggest storing in the refrigerator. These cherry chocolate no-bakes can be made several days, even a few weeks ahead as the flavors will enhance after the cherries and chocolate have rested together for a few days.  Enjoy! (An excellent Holiday treat)

** VARIATION: For a little less crunch, you can use 1 cup Lady Jane Hemp Hearts with 1 cup of Lady Jane Toasted Hemp Seeds with Sea Salt.

Time Safer – press mixture into a 9 X 13 greased pan and cut to desire sizes once mixture sets

This cherry blend no-bake with our toasted hemp seeds is a big hit. Who doesn't like chocolate? We suggest using good quality dark chocolate or cacao as they're good nutrition and delicious. The following 2 recipes are variations of this one. Enjoy them all!
