Introduction

We all know that I adore chocolate bark, because how can you not?! Melt a load of chocolate, then decorate it however you like. This time I wanted to make a nutty chocolate bark because, like my Peanut Brittle on page 186, it’s an easy homemade gift idea, a delicious, sweet snack and it’s such a versatile recipe that you can cater to what or who you want! Use your favourite chocolate, or a combination of your faves, then whatever nuts you like, or a combination… you do you!

Ingredients

400gchocolate (I use dark)
200gchopped nuts (I use pistachios and pecans)
200gdried fruit (I use raisins and sultanas)
1–2 tspsea salt

Essential kit

You will need: a microwave.

Method

PREP: 10 minutes. BAKE: 5 minutes. SET: 1 hour. LASTS: 1+ week, at room temperature.

In a heatproof bowl, break up the chocolate into pieces. Melt in the microwave in short bursts or set the bowl over a pan of simmering water (bain-marie) until smooth. Pour in most of the nuts and dried fruit, then stir.

Pour onto a large, lined baking tray and spread evenly. Sprinkle on the rest of the chopped nuts and fruit, then scatter over the sea salt and set in the fridge for 1 hour.

Break up and enjoy.

Notes: You can use any nut, and any dried fruit. Leave out the salt if you prefer, but it adds a nice element of flavour and crunch.
