Homemade Jaffa Chocolate Butter

Posted: Apr 25, 2016 · Updated: Mar 22, 2021 by Tisa · 6 Comments

Jump to Recipe

When it comes to making various kinds of spreads for an infinite number of desserts, I've become almost obsessed with macadamia nuts. Luckily, I've found a local importer from which I can buy huge amounts of nuts at a really nice price!

This Homemade jaffa chocolate butter is thus based on macadamia nuts.

If you've ever been a fan of orange-chocolate combination (Jaffa Cakes, for example), you should love this Jaffa Chocolate Macadamia Butter recipe! #jaffanutbutter

Because they add the least net carbs, taste delicious, and are, most importantly, a source of healthy fats. If you wish, you can use any other type of nuts.

In the recipe below, I used orange oil to add the most fragrant orange flavor to the butter. I buy the oil at a local organic store, but it is not available at all times. If you can't find the oil where you live, I guess orange zest from an organic orange fruit should do a fine job.

Oh, and as for the Jaffa Chocolate butter itself - if you've ever been a fan of orange-chocolate combination (Jaffa Cakes, Jaffa Cakes for example), you should love this recipe!

    There is a difference between between cocoa powder and cocoa butter, right ? So which one of the two do you use in this recipe?

      Do you mean cocoa and cacao powder? The word "cacao" usually stands for less processed "cacao" products (cacao beans, cacao butter, cacao nibs, etc.) before they are processed into a "cocoa" powder. As for the "cocoa powder" I like using Duch cocoa powder. Hope this helps a bit.

    This is spectacular! I made the full batch to use in your Jaffa Cake (in the oven now) and am so glad there's plenty leftover for me to nibble on, it is delicious! Can't wait to have it over a slice of roasted keto bread, or on waffles. Happy days 🙂 Thank you so much for sharing this recipe, I only added more cocoa and some Stevia drops to suit my taste.

      Sure. I use it on pancakes, as an ingredient in a recipe that calls for nut butter (particularly Jaffa cake recipe) or just eat it off of a spoon instead of a fat bomb. 🙂
