I'm not vegan, but I enjoy making some vegan sweet just to see how they taste, and i want to make some vegan chocolate bars, but i don't want them to be "dry" as other vegan chocolate i've tasted.

How can I make some creamy/smooth vegan chocolate bars from cocoa?

not all the time go to any 7/11 and look up the ingredients of a chocolate mar, most of them contain milk

Buy chocolate that is just cocoa and cocoa butter + emulsifier.

Coconut oil and maybe some vanilla extract and/or stevia or honey. If dark chocolate isn't your thing, consider adding coconut milk. Google for similar recipes for the proper ratio of ingredients. Mix and cool in fridge/freezer for 1/2 hour.

It probably has to do with the way they're better than you and make you feel inadequate. I'd be pissed too if I was as shitty as you and other people were so much better than me

Dude just grind cocoa nibs with cocoa butter (no not the lotion that hard stuff that's food grade ) and add a sweetener like dried date powder and your set its super easy and not dry

I'm going to go ahead and make the assumption that you're a horrid shriveled up little vegan like the person I replied to.

Because you eat differently than I do, you are not better than me. Because you somehow feed yourself the delusion that something is green it does not die does not make you better than me. Because you willingly throw yourself into martyrdom does not make you better than me.

You are alive, something has to die. You are still human and unfortunately you horrid little gremlins are the same as me. It is the way things are. You are no better, you are no worse but you still piss me off.

>you are not better than me

I actually, literally am though. Sorry to break it to you, man. Didn't mean to rain on your parade, but that's just how life is sometimes. Sometimes you're just a shitty person and other people just outdo you in some or every aspect of life. The sooner you accept that, the sooner you'll have your peace
