Description

Crunchy roasted nuts coated in rich dark chocolate and sprinkled with flaky sea salt, these no-bake bars are the perfect sweet and salty snack. Quick to prepare and endlessly customizable, they’re ideal for meal prep, lunchboxes, or a guilt-free dessert.


Ingredients

2 cups mixed roasted nuts (e.g., almonds, cashews, pecans)

12 ounces dark chocolate, chopped

1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional)

1/2 teaspoon flaky sea salt


Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
  2. Melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil together in a heatproof bowl over a double boiler or in the microwave in 20–30 second bursts, stirring in between until smooth.
  3. Stir in the roasted nuts until they’re fully coated with the melted chocolate.
  4. Pour the nut mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it out evenly.
  5. Sprinkle the top with flaky sea salt.
  6. Refrigerate for about 1 hour, or until firm to the touch.
  7. Once set, lift out using the parchment paper, cut into bars, and serve.

Notes

Switch up the nuts—try pistachios or hazelnuts for variety.

Add pumpkin seeds or shredded coconut for extra texture and nutrition.

A drizzle of white chocolate on top adds a decorative touch.

Add a pinch of cayenne or cinnamon to the chocolate for a spicy twist.

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 2 months.
