sam
Discover how to make this viral gluten-free Dubai chocolate date bark, a delightful and easy-to-prepare treat with rich flavors and wholesome ingredients.
- Approximately 1 cup Medjool dates, destoned
- 100-150 grams dark chocolate bar, 70% cacao or higher
- 1/2 cup pistachios, shelled and unsalted
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt flakes, for sprinkling
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil, optional, for smoother chocolate
Combine the destoned fruits in a food processor. Pulse until a sticky, uniform paste forms. If the mixture is too dry, add a tiny bit of water.
Press the fruit paste evenly onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Aim for a thin, rectangular shape. You can use a rolling pin for a smooth finish.
Gently warm the dark confectionary in a double boiler or microwave. Stir until completely smooth. A tablespoon of coconut oil can help achieve a glossy consistency.
Pour the warm confectionary over the date layer. Spread it evenly to cover the entire surface. Work quickly before it sets.
Sprinkle the crushed pistachios over the warm topping. Add a pinch of flaky crystals for enhanced flavor. Press them lightly to adhere.
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. Once firm, break the bark into irregular pieces. Enjoy your homemade treat!
