Ever combed the kitchen cabinets on a mission to indulge a sweet craving? Inspired by what I found in my pantry, this chocolate almond butter bark magically came together to make the perfect healthy treat! Loaded with omegas 3, 6, and 9 along with antioxidants and magnesium, this concoction will satisfy your sweet tooth.

What you need:

• 16 ounces raw crushed almonds
• 4 cups coconut flakes
• 2 cups blueberries
• 1 cup pomegranate seeds
• 1 cup raw pepitas
• 4 cups hemp granola (Nature’s Path)
• 1 16-ounce jar room temperature almond butter
• 17.5 ounces dark chocolate (Green and Black’s is my fave)
• Sesame oil
• 2 deep casserole dishes

Putting it Together:

1. In a large mixing bowl combine all dry ingredients and berries.
2. Melt chocolate and almond butter  in a double boiler continually stirring. Pour over dry ingredients and berries mixing quickly. If the texture appears too thick, stir in a teaspoon of sesame oil until a creamy consistency is reached.
3. Once thoroughly combined, equally divide mixture into the casserole dishes.
4. Cover with waxed paper or parchment paper and chill for about an hour in the refrigerator.
5. Once it’s chilled break off a piece and chomp down!
