Serves: 12 pieces
Ingredients
- 1 cup dark chocolate, melted
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/4 cup hemp seeds
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Begin by preparing your workspace. Gather all your ingredients: 1 cup of dark chocolate, 1/2 cup of dried cranberries, 1/4 cup of hemp seeds, and 1/4 cup of chopped nuts (if using). You will also need a heatproof bowl, a saucepan, parchment paper, and a baking sheet.
- Set up a double boiler by filling a saucepan with about an inch of water and placing it on the stove over medium heat. Place the heatproof bowl on top of the saucepan, ensuring that it does not touch the water. This will allow the chocolate to melt gently without burning.
- Add the 1 cup of dark chocolate to the bowl. Stir occasionally as the chocolate begins to melt, until it is completely smooth and melted. Remove the bowl from the heat once the chocolate is fully melted.
- While the chocolate is melting, line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will prevent the chocolate bark from sticking and make it easier to remove once set.
- Once the chocolate is melted, pour it onto the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread it into an even layer, approximately 1/4 inch thick. Make sure the edges are slightly thicker to help hold in the toppings.
- Before the chocolate sets, sprinkle the 1/2 cup of dried cranberries evenly over the melted chocolate. Then, add the 1/4 cup of hemp seeds, followed by the optional 1/4 cup of chopped nuts if you are using them. Press down gently on the toppings to ensure they adhere to the chocolate.
- Allow the chocolate bark to cool at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes, or until it starts to set. If you prefer, you can place it in the refrigerator for quicker setting.
- Once the chocolate has hardened, break it into pieces of your desired size. Store the raw vegan chocolate bark in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep it fresh.
- Enjoy your delicious Raw Vegan Chocolate Bark with Cranberries and Hemp Seeds as a healthy snack or dessert!
