Just because you are on a diet doesn’t mean you have to do it completely without certain things. This Toasted Nut Bark is made with Lily’s chocolate chips that are sweetened with Stevia. The nuts in this recipe give the bark a nice crunch. Sprinkle some unsweetened coconut to give it a little more flavor. This nut bark truly curbs the craving for something sweet!

Ingredients

Instructions

Place the nuts on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Pour the melted butter on the nuts and toss to coat. Place the nuts in a 350-degree oven and roast for about 5-10 minutes, stirring once every minute. Make sure to keep an eye on them because they can burn in a blink of an eye. When the nuts are done, remove from the oven and set aside.

Place the chocolate chips in a bowl with butter. Microwave for 20 seconds and stir. Continue microwaving in 15 second intervals until the chocolate is smooth.

Pour the chocolate onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread the chocolate out until you have achieved a thin layer.

While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle the top with nuts. I used pecans and almonds, but use whatever nuts you like. Then sprinkle with unsweetened coconut flakes. I only sprinkled half the nut bark with coconut to accommodate the preferences in my home. Gently press the nuts and coconut flakes into the chocolate. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Remove the bark from the refrigerator and break into rough pieces. Store in a food storage container or bag, but you better hide them from the rest of your household for controlled distribution; otherwise, it will be gone before you have any of it.
