chocolate coconut cream gelatin

These are a fun, simple treat to make with the kids, and the adult kids as well. They are paleo and have a low carb version too. I remember  making a lot of jello when I was a kid in the 70’s, but the traditional, processed jello is full of all kinds of nasty additives and chemicals.

The good news is that the unsweetened, unflavored, grass fed gelatin has many health benefits. It is high in protein and contains collagen for healthy skin ,hair and nails. Gelatin has anti-ageing properties, and can help with weight loss.  No grains, starches, gluten or fruit juices are in these.

They can be served plain or topped with coconut sauce and, blueberries, or sliced strawberries. I cut mine into squares, but I also put some of the mixture into small molds. My kids like to get out the cookie cutters and make fun shapes that wiggle.

    I would like to try this recipe, but I only have powdered gelatin. Is this correct measure: 1 envelope of gelatine = 7g of gelatine? Thank you
