Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Cacao butter
- 1/4 cup Raw cacao powder
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon Sea salt
- 1/4 cup Chopped nuts (such as almonds, walnuts, or pistachios)
- 1/4 cup Dried fruits (such as cranberries or raisins)
- 2 tablespoons Shredded coconut
- 1 tablespoon Cacao nibs (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare a baking sheet or flat surface by lining it with parchment paper.
In a double boiler or heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, gently melt the cacao butter until it is completely liquefied.
Remove the bowl from heat and whisk in the raw cacao powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt until smooth and well combined.
Pour the chocolate mixture onto the prepared parchment paper and spread it evenly with a spatula to your desired thickness.
Sprinkle the chopped nuts, dried fruits, shredded coconut, and cacao nibs (if using) evenly over the surface of the chocolate while it is still wet.
Lightly press the toppings into the chocolate to ensure they stick as it sets.
Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and allow the chocolate bark to set for about 30 minutes or until completely firm.
Once firm, break the chocolate bark into irregular pieces and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
Enjoy as a quick snack or share as a homemade gift!
