Easy & Healthy Chocolate Bark!

I thought the chocolate avocado pudding was my ultimate favourite chocolate dessert until I caught wind of this incredible chocolate bark recipe. My sister discovered this recipe and raved about it incessantly so I finally decided to give it a try. My only regret...not trying it sooner! Crispy, chewy, rich, cold, chocolatey; it will drive your senses bonkers! Takes literally no time to make and it is a fun activity for the kiddies to participate in.

Ingredients
  • Base
    • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
    • 1/2 cup coconut oil (I use virgin cold-pressed)
    • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • Toppings
    • 1/3 cup rice krispies
    • 1 tbsp hemp seeds
    • 1 tbsp roasted pumpkin seeds
    • 2 tbsp dried cranberries
    • 2 tbsp shredded unsweetened coconut
Tip! Feel free to add in any other "toppings". You can really add in anything you want! Walnut crumbs, chunks of dried fruit, sunflower seeds...don't be shy!

Method
  1. Combine cocoa powder, coconut oil and maple syrup until smooth. 
  2. Add in toppings: rice krispies, hemp seeds, pumpkin seeds, dried cranberries and shredded coconut.
    Such great little helpers!
  3. Spread mixture out thinly on parchment paper lined baking pan.
    So helpful with clean-up:)
  4. Place baking pan right in the freezer. Freeze for a couple hours.
  5. Break apart and enjoy! Remember to store bark in the freezer!
    Yup, they loved it!
We strongly encourage you to try this recipe and let us know how you like it! What fun toppings did you add in?
