Equipment

  • Microwave

Ingredients

  • 8-10 oz Dark Chocolate Chips
  • various nuts, seeds and dried fruit (I used, cashews, pecans, walnuts, almonds, peanuts, dried cranberry, dried blueberry, dried coconut, flax and sunflowers kernels. Feel free to use a pre-packaged trail mix.)
  • course ground sea salt

Instructions

  • Prep all your toppings, chopping the larger nuts and fruit if necessary. You don't want the pieces too large because these chocolate bites are small (about the size of a half dollar coin). Lay all toppings out on a cutting board and have them handy to grab.
  • Place chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl, microwave on high for 15-20 second increments, stirring in between microwaving until fully melted and smooth.
  • With a teaspoon, place a small amount of chocolate on a baking sheet lined with wax or parchment paper. Take the back of the spoon and spread into a thin layer. Place fruit and nuts on top (in any combination you like).
  • Place in refrigerator for approximately one hour and let harden.
  • Can be stored in refrigerator in a plastic bag or sealed dish for up to one week.
