This crunchy chocolate bark is perfect for the holidays with dried, chewy gojis and crumbly pistachios, but you could add any of your favorite superfoods to make it your own.
Steps
1
Preparing the Goji Bark
Ingredients
1 cup cacao butter
1 cup raw cacao powder
1 vanilla bean, scraped
1/4 cup agave
1/2 cup dried goji berries, chopped
1/2 cup shelled pistachios, chopped
To prepare the goji bark, in a double boiler, melt the cacao butter over low heat until just melted and warm. Alternatively, you can place the cacao butter in a bowl and melt in the dehydrator. Using a high–speed blender, combine the melted butter, cacao powder and the vanilla bean flesh. Slowly drizzle in the agave syrup until well combined.
Pour the mixture into a shallow pan, just coating the bottom. Sprinkle the goji berries and pistachios over the top, then place in the freezer to set.

Hi!
Is there anything I can substitute for the cacao butter?
Hi Valentina. You can use your favorite high quality chocolate here and skip the cocoa butter, powder and agave. Double boil your chocolate, pour it into a waxed paper or spray oil lined pan, sprinkle with your toppings, freeze, break apart and enjoy. Lauren
