Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup nuts (almonds, walnuts, etc.)
- 1/4 cup dried fruit (cranberries, apricots, etc.)
- 1 tablespoon sea salt
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all the ingredients: 1 cup of dark chocolate chips, 1/2 cup of your choice of nuts (such as almonds or walnuts), 1/4 cup of dried fruit (like cranberries or apricots), and 1 tablespoon of sea salt.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will prevent the chocolate from sticking and make cleanup easier.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, add the dark chocolate chips. Heat the chocolate in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat, as chocolate can burn easily.
- Once the chocolate is melted, remove it from the microwave and let it cool for a minute. Then, pour the melted chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it out into an even layer with a spatula or the back of a spoon.
- While the chocolate is still warm, sprinkle the nuts evenly over the surface. Follow this by adding the dried fruit, ensuring an even distribution across the chocolate.
- Finally, sprinkle the sea salt over the top of the chocolate, nuts, and dried fruit to enhance the flavors.
- Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate has completely hardened.
- Once the chocolate has set, remove it from the refrigerator and break it into pieces of your desired size. Store the vegan chocolate bark in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
Tips
- • Use high-quality dark chocolate chips for the best flavor and smoothest texture • Make sure your chocolate melts slowly and gently to prevent burning • Allow the chocolate to cool slightly before adding toppings to prevent them from sinking • Experiment with different nut and dried fruit combinations for unique flavor profiles • Use parchment paper for easy removal and clean-up • Chill the bark completely before breaking to ensure clean, crisp pieces • Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness and texture • For extra indulgence, try adding a sprinkle of coconut flakes or vegan chocolate drizzle
