  • 1/3 cup shelled pistachios (roasted and salted work well)
  • 1/8 tsp sea salt

Instructions
 

Prep Toppings

  • Slice pomegranate into quarters to get out the seeds. Measure out 1/3 cup and set aside.
  • Take pistachios out of shells (if they're not already) and coarsely chop with a knife into small pieces. Measure out 1/3 cup and set aside.
  • Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.

Melt Chocolate over Double Broiler

  • Place a glass or stainless steel heat-safe bowl over a pot of boiling water. Ensuring the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water.
  • Add chocolate chips to bowl and melt over low-medium heat, stirring continuously until smooth then use hot pads to immediately take bowl off heat. Do not let chocolate burn.

Assemble Chocolate Bark

  • Pour melted chocolate on parchment-lined sheet pan right away. Use a spatula to spread it out into a thin, even layer.
  • Sprinkle pomegranate seeds and chopped pistachios over the top evenly.
  • Gently press fruit and seeds down into the chocolate and sprinkle sea salt over the top.
  • Place sheet pan in the fridge for 1 hour or until fully cooled and chocolate is hardened.
  • Break chocolate into pieces and enjoy!
