4 Ingredient Chocolate Bark

Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup uncooked quinoa
  • 2 cups dark chocolate chips melted
  • 2/3 cup dried cranberries roughly chopped
  • 2 Tbsps freshly grated orange zest

Optional:

  • flaky sea salt

Instructions

  • Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.

To toast your quinoa:

  • Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Add in the quinoa and shake the pan to cover the bottom in a single layer.
  • Toast the quinoa by shaking your pan frequently for about 1-2 minutes, or until the quinoa is golden. Stay with it the entire time as quinoa can burn quickly.
  • Transfer your toasted quinoa to a small bowl and allow it to cool.

To melt your chocolate:

  • Place a heat-safe bowl over a pot with boiling water. Make sure the water doesn't touch the bottom of the bowl.
  • Add in the chocolate chips and allow them to melt, stirring occasionally until smooth.
  • Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate chips in the microwave. Add them to a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 15-second increments until chocolate is fully melted, making sure you stir after each one.
  • Set aside a few pinches of each ingredient to sprinkle on top just for aesthetics (to make it prettier) if desired.
  • Once your toasted quinoa has cooled, add it to the bowl with your melted chocolate. Stir in the cranberries and orange zest, minus any you're using as a topping.
  • Pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared sheet pan then spread into a 1/4-inch layer as shown in the video. Sprinkle with any additional ingredients you set aside, if desired.
  • Refrigerate for 1 hour, or until fully set.
  • Slice or break your chocolate bark into pieces and serve.
  • Enjoy!
