Could you use pumpkin pie spice for flavor in this? Would give a nice bit of speckle too!!

In reply to PDXgirl. I've not tried it, but the coconut butter has some natural sweetness to it and the cacao butter is not sweet at all so you may just need to add more sweetener.

Could you use cacao butter in place of the coconut butter?

What a great simple recipe! Perfect alternative to store-bought sugar-packed candies!

In reply to Julie. It calls for solid coconut oil, which ia then melted. The always liquid coconut oil would not work in this recipe. You would probably get glop. That is usually mct oil.

Omg these are so cute! I’ve never had coconut butter before or worked with it. How is it different than the oil?

In reply to Julie. If the coconut oil is hardened, you could soften it slightly before measuring the 1/4 cup needed, maybe just 20 seconds in the mircowave.

Silly question on the coconut oil…I’ve only just started using it for a few a recipes. I have the hard coconut oil. Do I measure out 1/4 cup of the solid and then melt it in a saucepan to get the liquid? Or do melt it first into a liquid form and then measure out a 1/4 cup? Or do I really need to get the liquid form from the store? Any input would be great! These look great and I would love to give my kids another candy/treat option other than all the sugar that is going to start flowing into the house these next few weeks…
