These bars are a delightful blend of creamy chocolate and crunchy pistachios, perfect for a sweet snack, a gift, or a party dessert. They are easy to make and require no baking!
Ingredients
Scale:
2 cups dark chocolate chips (or milk chocolate for a sweeter flavor)
1/4 cup coconut oil
1 cup shelled pistachios, roughly chopped
1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
Sea salt flakes (optional)
Extra chopped pistachios for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Line an 8x8 inch square baking dish with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each until fully melted and smooth.
Stir half of the chopped pistachios into the melted chocolate mixture. If using maple syrup or honey, add it now and mix well.
Pour the chocolate and pistachio mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining chopped pistachios over the top. If desired, add a pinch of sea salt flakes.
Place the dish in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolate is completely set.
Once set, lift the chocolate out of the pan using the parchment overhang and cut into bars or squares.
