BEST Easy Almond Joy Coconut Viral Date Bark Recipe

Gentle Tummy
Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 12 medjool dates
  • 2 tablespoons almond butter
  • 1/4 cup almonds
  • 1/3 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarse sea salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions
 

  • Slice 12 pitted medjool dates in half and place them side-by-side, in four rows of six date halves, on a sheet of parchment paper. Cover with a second sheet of parchment paper and roll them out to about 1/8" thickness using a small rolling pin. 
  • Spread the almond butter on the smashed date halves. Then roughly chop the almond and sprinkle them on the almond butter layer.
  • Add the chocolate chips and coconut oil to a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 20-second intervals in the microwave. Remove the bowl from the microwave after each interval and gently stir. 
    NOTE: Microwaving the chocolate for over 20 seconds at a time could cause the chocolate to overheat and become thick, clumpy, and impossible to melt again to a smooth consistency.
  • Pour the melted chocolate over the bark and gently spread with a spatula. Be sure to cover all the nuts and the date layer.
  • Sprinkle coarse sea salt over the chocolate, the coconut, and a few of the chopped almonds. Transfer the bark and the parchment to a baking sheet and place in the fridge for 30 minutes to set. Or, you can place the bark in the freezer for about 5-10 minutes until the chocolate sets. Then either break apart or cut the bark into smaller pieces to enjoy!
