fruit & seed chocolate bars
I was given the challenge by a school of making a rocky road that was nut free and somehow came up with this chocolate bar 🤠It is so simple and easy to make and went down an absolute treat with my family and the students too!
recipe (makes 16 chunks)
ingredients
400g chocolate (both dark and milk chocolate work well here)
2 cups of roasted seeds (I used pumpkin and sunflower)
1 cup dates, pitted and chopped
1 cup dried apricots, chopped
1/2 cup desiccated coconut
Zest of one orange
Salt
method
1. In a small bowl add the chocolate in either a microwave or over a double boiler.
2. In a large bowl add in the roasted seeds, dates, dried apricots, desiccated coconut , orange zest and a pinch of salt.
3. Pour the melted chocolate into the bowl and mix until everything is well combined.
4. Line a baking tray with baking paper and pour in the rocky road mixture.
5. Place the tray in the fridge to set for 3-4 hours.
6. Cut into large chunks and store in an airtight container.
tip
These can store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 weeks!
