Chocolate Bark with Pomegranate Seeds, Coconut, and Ginger
Jessica Braider
This chocolate bark with pomegranate seeds gets a tiny kick from the ginger and a pop of texture from the juicy pomegranate seeds. It makes a great holiday gift or colorful holiday dessert.
2cupssemisweet chocolate chipsor 12 oz. of any dark chocolate
1/2cupunsweetened shredded coconutuse reduced fat if you can find it
1tsp. ground ginger
1cuppomegranate seeds
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt the chocolate in the microwave or a double boiler (if using the microwave, heat it in 30 second increments). Stir it until smooth, then stir in the coconut and ginger.
Using a spatula, spread the chocolate mixture on the parchment paper as thin as you can (without making yourself crazy).
Sprinkle the pomegranate seeds evenly on top, pressing them gently with your hand or a spatula to get them to adhere to the chocolate.
Freeze it for 20 – 30 minutes (or refrigerate it for an hour) until the chocolate hardens, then using the dull end of a knife to stabilize it, break the chocolate into pieces. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a few days.
