Healthy Chocolate Bark

Brittany Piscatella
Healthy desserts > not healthy desserts. I do love a classic dessert, but on the day-to-day, a healthy dessert is what we need. This one is so tasty and smooth; the pumpkin seeds and dates together are a 10/10. I also added a swirl of peanut butter never hurt anyone.

Ingredients
  

  • Dark Chocolate Use as much as feels right for you depending on how much you want to make.
  • 1 tbsp Coconut Oil I use virgin and organic coconut oil.
  • Choice of Toppings I used dates, pumpkin seeds, peanut butter, and sea salt.

Instructions
 

First, you are going to put your chocolate and coconut oil in, and then you have two options:

  • -You can boil water and put the bowl over the water, heat and stir consistently. This will heat the chocolate.
  • -The next option is to microwave the bowl of chocolate for 15-20 seconds at a time and stir in between.

The Toppings:

  • Next, you will spread your melted chocolate evenly-ish onto your parchment paper. Be sure not to make it too thin!
  • While the chocolate is still warm, you want to add all the toppings to make sure they stick.
  • Place in the freezer for about 30 minutes or when you're ready to eat it.
  • When the bark is sufficiently frozen, take it out and break it apart with your hands.
  • You can store it in an airtight container in the freezer and enjoy it whenever you like.

Notes

  1. I think this recipe is great for seed cycling. It can be a good way to add the seeds into the chocolate or as a topping! I am going to be writing about my experience with seed cycling.
  2. The calories are estimates for 30g of chocolate and with the toppings I chose.
    • Parchment Paper - This is so you can easily get the chocolate off. Comes off like butter.
    • Quality Dark Chocolate - I am going to link my favorite chocolate that I always use! Here it is! It is made with coconut sugar and straight cacao. Very good.
