***Recipe Notes***
This chocolate isn’t going to taste exactly like the processed store bought white chocolate. However if you’ve ever made natural chocolate then you know what taste to expect. I didn’t include the cookie crumb in the Macronutrients. Add 1 Carb per 10 chocolates extra if you would like to count it.
