Homemade Chocolate Chips Bar is so delicious and has no refined sugar. Believe it or not, I can now enjoy chocolate chips and bars again.
In any case, I have yet to find a chocolate bar that I can purchase that has no refined sugar on the market at a price I am willing to pay. If you are like me then you like chocolate. Who am I kidding I love chocolate. Needless to say, if I want chocolate chips or a chocolate bar I need to make it myself.
In the beginning, I did a lot of trial and error before I came up with this recipe. Some of the beginning chocolate didn’t turn out and I had to throw it out. That meant I had to do a lot of research until I could come up with a recipe. Therefore, I decided to start with good quality unsweetened chocolate. I use cocoa butter that is of good quality. Make sure the cocoa butter you use is edible and made to be consumed. Get a good quality food grade cocoa butter.
Notes on Homemade Chocolate Chips:
After I did my research I had to find molds for chocolate chips or chocolate bars. I have two molds I use. One looks exactly like chocolate chips but you have to be careful when removing from the mold or the top will break off like in the picture.
The other I use is an octagonal shape (technically it is a hot pad but you can use it as a mold).
I think the chip mold has a little more waste but the octagonal shape is harder to clean in my opinion. Both work and it is whatever you prefer. If you want chocolate bars, buy the mold that fits your style.
Use to make the most delectable Caramel Espresso Chocolate Banana Bread, or use in Chopped Chocolate Cookies, or use with Dairy-Free Espresso Caramel. Food grade Cocoa Butter, Coconut Sugar, and Guittard Unsweetened Chocolate can be found at Amazon.

With the chocolate chips, you will need to gently press them up and out from the bottom of the chocolate form. 
Place chocolate chips inside a container with a lid and store in the fridge. Same for the chocolate bar. If you are not using the chocolate it can be stored in the freezer in plastic freezer bags. Who am I kidding you can also eat them!! Enjoy your chocolate!!
