Stir until combined. Next, line a sheet tray with parchment paper and spoon approximately 2 tbsp of mixture in dollops or 'piles' on parchment, equally spread apart. If you have course sea salt, sprinkle the top of each “pile”. Place in freezer for at least 20 minutes to firm up. Store in a plastic freezer bag and pull out when you need a sweet treat!

PS: you could sub cacao butter with coconut oil or coconut butter but the texture may not be the same.  You can also sub cacao powder with coco powder.
