Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher), chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Szechuan peppercorns, lightly crushed
  • 1/2 cup mixed nuts (such as almonds, cashews, and walnuts), roughly chopped
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries or cherries
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth.
  3. Once melted, stir in the crushed Szechuan peppercorns, mixed nuts, dried cranberries, and sea salt until evenly combined.
  4. Pour the chocolate mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
  5. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate is set.
  6. Once set, break the bark into pieces and store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, increase the amount of Szechuan peppercorns to 1.5 teaspoons.
  • Substitute the mixed nuts with your favorite seeds or puffed rice for a different texture.
