- 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.
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.
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.
