Eiskonfekt

Ischoklad is a traditional Swedish Christmas treat made primarily from chocolate and coconut oil. The name "Ischoklad" translates to "ice chocolate" in English, which refers to the cool sensation it creates when melting in the mouth due to the high content of coconut oil.

Preparation

1. Melt the chocolate and coconut oil together in a double boiler or a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water.
2. Once melted and well combined, the mixture is poured into small paper or foil cups.
3. The cups are then placed in the refrigerator to set.

Serving

Ischoklad is typically served cold, directly from the refrigerator, to maintain its firm texture. It is a popular treat during the Christmas season in Sweden and is often included in homemade Christmas candy assortments.
