Since chocolates with salt are a hot item in the food world these days, I thought I'd bring you a couple of quick-n-easy recipes to wow your friends with. Please note, you are not required to share these with anyone, but it would be nice, just ask your mom.
Sea Salt and Pistachio Dark Chocolate Bark
1/2 cup chopped pistachios
12 oz bag dark chocolate candy melts
2 tsp sea salt
Line a cookie sheet with wax paper and spread out the chopped pistachios in a squared layer on top.
Either in a double boiler or in a thick bottomed saucepan over low heat (setting 3), melt the chocolate until smooth.
Pour chocolate over the chopped pistachios and spread until covered.
Let sit for a minute or two before sprinkling the salt over the chocolate.
Put in the fridge for 5-10 minutes to set. Break bark into bite-sized pieces and serve.
1/2 cup chopped roasted almonds
12 oz bag white chocolate candy melts
2 tsp Himalayan pink salt
You can find high quality melting chocolates in the baking section of most craft stores like Michaels and AC Moore, but many grocery stores will carry them too.
You can also find 1/2 lb and 1 lb candy boxes at most craft stores as well. Line one with wax paper and fill with bark pieces. Tie up with a fetching ribbon and voila! Instant homemade candy gift (your friends and recipients will be most impressed).
