Vegan Chocolate Bark
If you’re looking for a last-minute holiday recipe to bring to a party, I’ve got you covered! This chocolate bark is so easy to make and I bet you already have these ingredients in your pantry.
Ingredients
12 ounces quality chocolate chips or chopped chocolate (I like bittersweet/about 60% cocao content)
2 tbsp of almond butter
¾ cup trail mix or a combination of roasted nuts and raisins.
1/2 cup freeze dry strawberries or you can use cranberries.
Method
Place the chocolate in a large heat-proof bowl over a pot of gently simmering water. Cook until the chocolate is almost entirely melted, stirring frequently. Add the almond butter. Stir until smooth. Carefully lift the bowl from the boiler and wipe off any water from the bottom of the bowl before scooping the chocolate onto your baking sheet.
Cover a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a silicone or rubber spatula to spread chocolate evenly over the center area of the baking sheet.
Sprinkle the trail mix, freeze dry strawberries. Make it pretty.
If you’re in a rush, place the pan on a flat surface in the refrigerator to harden for about 15 minutes. If you’re not, let the chocolate cool at room temperature for 2 to 4 hours, until completely hardened.
Once the chocolate is completely hardened, use your hands to break it into about 25 pieces. Serve immediately, or cover and store at room temperature for up to 1 week.
