Chocolate MCT Bars
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Lily's Stevia-Sweetened Dark Chocolate Chips
- 3 teaspoons MCT oil
Yes, that's ALL you need, plus a great easy-to-use and wash mold, of course!

What, Exactly, Is MCT Oil?
If you're wondering what MCT stands for, it's "Medium-Chain Triglycerides." The Nature's Way MCT oil is made from coconuts.
NOTE: Coconut oil is a "good fat/oil."
We're adding the MCT oil to add more slipperiness to the melted chocolate chips.

How To Make
Chocolate MCT Bars
- Add chocolate chips to a glass measuring cup and microwave for 1 minute
- Add 3 teaspoons of MCT oil
- Stir well, and divvy up into TEN chocolates using a teaspoon
- FREEZE (keep as flat as possible!) for about a couple of hours (or overnight)
- Gently push the chocolates out of the mold
- Store in air-tight container IN the FREEZER... and enjoy!
See "By the Numbers" for recipe for TEN chocolates farther down the page. Don't be tempted to make 12 smaller ones (if you don't trim your mold(!) or just simply forget; that would throw off your "By the Numbers" values.
UPDATE: Please please please don't burn your chocolates. We recently moved house and of course there's a different brand of microwave in the kitchen. My first batch of MCT chocolate bars got burned! Nearly had smoke coming out of the microwave... so, be careful when microwaving the chips.
Try 30 seconds on full power, then another 30 seconds at 50% power... and don't forget that your chips won't LOOK melted—it's only when you get your spoon in the jug to mix in the MCT oil that the chips meld together and appear fully melted!

By the way, I cut OFF one of the rows of chocolates off the mold. Why? So I could fit it on one of my big plastic tub LIDS so it would LIE FLAT in the freezer!
That reminds me of a story: One day, a daughter asked her mom the secret of her roast beef's recipe success; mom said to her, "I cut off the end of the beef, just like grandma does!" That didn't make much sense to her, so when she next saw her grandma she asked, "Nana, why do you cut off the end of the roast beef?" To which nana replied, "Oh, so it'll fit in the roasting pan!"... Moral of the story: That's why I cut off the end of the brown chocolate mold! ;-)

Keeping Track...
When you first start on a low carb Keto diet, I do recommend keeping track of what you eat with either an app on your phone (and/or a desktop computer version both of which I do use daily), or use one of my tracking books if you’re a pencil-and-paper person. The digital tracker I use is called Cronometer.
