Servings: 12
Calories: 150kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup dark chocolate or almond bark
- 1/2 cup walnuts or pecans chopped or crumbled by hand
- 1/2 cup pomegranate seeds
- Optional add-ins: pumpkin seeds, cacao nibs, or any other favorite healthy mix-ins.
Instructions
- Melt the chocolate or almond bark in the microwave or over a double boiler.
- For the microwave, heat in 25-second increments, stir well, then reheat as necessary.
- Let the chocolate cool a bit as you place your small cupcake liners in your mini muffin tin.
- We found the best results were to stir in a bit of the pecan and pomegranate seeds and then sprinkle some on top.
- Stir in about half of the nuts and pomegranate seeds into the melted chocolate and then portion about 1/2 Tablespoon into each liner.
- Top each with the remaining mix-ins and then press down gently to set.
- Let the chocolate set for 1 hour before popping out of the tin and serving.
Notes
While this chocolate can be refrigerated to set the chocolate quicker, I found that it slightly dried out the pomegranate seeds.
Also, covering the chocolates may cause them to sweat.
