Salted Pumpkin Seed Chocolate Bark

Winter is a sheer soul sucker for me. Add the rain and no signs of the sunlight, and I'm a mess. After a solid plus week of that junk, I finally felt the sun on my face this weekend. And it was GLORIOUS! Insert angelic singing.

I made this Salted Pumpkin Seed Chocolate Bark yesterday while the sun was beautiful. This batch of deliciousness will hold me over during the few days since it's supposed to be rainy and dreary again. Those of you that live up north, I don't know how you do it!

This bark I'm about to share with you only has three simple ingredients. The balance between the slight bitterness of dark chocolate and tang of salt is heaven! You have to make this immediately. It makes the winter weather so much more bearable. 

Salted Pumpkin Seed Chocolate Bark

Ingredients:

14 oz dark chocolate (72% cacao)

Pumpkin seeds (raw or roasted)

Salt crystals

Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and melt in double broiler. If you don't have a double broiler, DIY it by melting the chocolate in a glass dish or a small pan onto of a pot of boiling water. Stir chocolate continuously until just melted.

Pour the melted chocolate on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle pumpkin seeds evenly over the melted chocolate. Crush the salt crystals and sprinkle on top.

Place the cookie sheet flat in the freezer for 30 minutes. After it's completely frozen, break into chunks.

Devour. 

Be kind and share a bite.
