Ingredients
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 cups fresh raspberries (or berries of choice)
- 1 tbsp coconut oil (or vegetable oil, optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Base: Line a pan with wax or parchment paper and spread the fresh raspberries evenly into a rectangle or heart shape, creating the base for your chocolate bark.
- Melt the Chocolate: Carefully melt the chocolate chips using a microwave-safe bowl or a double boiler. Stir in the optional coconut or vegetable oil to make the chocolate smoother and easier to spread.
- Combine and Spread: Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the raspberries evenly. Use a spoon or spatula to spread the chocolate gently and ensure all berries are coated.
- Set the Bark: Place the pan in the freezer for about 10 minutes or refrigerate just until the chocolate is firm enough to break cleanly into pieces.
- Serve and Store: Break the bark into pieces and serve. The bark can be stored at room temperature for a few hours, but for longer storage, keep it refrigerated or frozen due to the perishable berries.
Notes
- Use parchment or wax paper to prevent sticking and make clean-up easier.
- The optional oil helps create a glossy finish and smoother texture in the chocolate.
- You can substitute raspberries with other fresh berries such as strawberries, blueberries, or blackberries.
- For best texture, consume within a few days if refrigerated, or keep frozen for extended storage.
- Make sure berries are dry before assembling to prevent chocolate from seizing.
