Spicy Chocolate Chili Pepper Bark
JOANNABENADRETEDescription
I must admit I do have a big sweet tooth--but I also love the occasional spicy kick in my desserts. I found this recipe through Further Food, and it fulfills my chocolate craving with ZERO added sugars and excites my tastebuds with its spicy notes! Cacao is a known antioxidant and aphrodisiac. Adding the optional nuts will increase the protein and healthy fat profile for a balanced dessert and leaves me feeling wholly satisfied! This recipe is great for anyone in search of a dessert filled with antioxidants, Dairy-free, Egg-free, Gluten-free, Low in Carbs, Low Sodium, Peanut-free, Seed-free, Soy-free, Tree Nut-free, and Vegetarian.
Ingredients
- 12 oz. dark chocolate (minimum of 40% cacao)
- 1 1/2 Tbsp. chili pepper
- 1 handful dried cherries (optional)
Directions
- 1) Line a baking pan with wax paper. 2) In a double-boiler*, combine all ingredients until chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. If you are using nuts or dried fruits, you may want to leave some aside for decoration after the chocolate has cooled. 3) Pour chocolate onto baking pan. Spread out evenly. 4) Be creative with some decoration at the end using leftover fruit or nuts. 5) Chill for 2-3 hours, or until set. 6) Break into pieces and store in an airtight container. *if you don’t have a double-boiler, place 1-2 inches of water in a pot and place a metal mixing bowl on top. Heat over medium-low heat and stir all ingredients in bowl.
