Ingredients

Chocolate berry bark is made with such simple ingredients – only 4 in total! They make for an easy, no-bake, and healthy chocolate treat.

Ingredient Notes

  • Dark Chocolate: Dark chocolate is the base of this simple recipe! I like to use high quality dark chocolate chips – like Guittard or Ghiradelli. They just melt so smoothly and taste so rich! You’ll need 1 cup.
  • White Chocolate: White chocolate is the perfect addition to this delicious bark. It is sweet, rich, and buttery and compliments the dark chocolate wonderfully. All you need is 2 tbsp! I again recommend a high quality chip, Ghiradelli is the best I’ve tried.
  • Berries: You simply cannot have a chocolate berry bark without berries! They add such a fabulous freshness and tartness to this treat. Add 1 cup of your favorites.
  • Refined Coconut Oil: Coconut oil is a super important ingredient here! It helps make the chocolate spreadable and drizzle-able. You’ll need 1 tbsp and 1/2 tsp. Make sure to use refined coconut oil, as unrefined or virgin will taste like coconuts.

Substitutions & Additions

This bark is actually quite customizable! There are many different ways you could change up or add to this base recipe.

Chocolate: You could really use any combination of chocolate you’d like here! Feel free to swap in semi-sweet or milk chocolate for either of the two used here.

Coconut Oil: I love to use coconut oil here, but another neutral tasting oil could also work. Perhaps vegetable oil!

Berries: Now this is the fun part! I went with a simple berry topping for this recipe, but you could truly add anything you’d like instead. Or in addition to the berries! Perhaps coconut flakes, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, dried fruit, peanut butter, or even candy.

Expert Tips

Use the parchment paper! This recipe would be a chocolatey, sticky mess without it.

Spread the chocolate in a thin, even layer – but not too thin.

Add all the extra toppings you’d like! The world is truly your oyster here.

Do not skip the coconut oil. It is vital to this dark chocolate bark recipe!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is dark chocolate healthy?

I am not a dietician or nutritionist, so do not take my word for absolute truth – but in my opinion dark chocolate is a fabulous option when you are looking for something good-for-you to cure that sweet tooth!

Studies have shown that it is high in antioxidants, heart-healthy, and can help reduce blood pressure. It is also oftentimes not loaded with the fat and sugars that other types of chocolate are.

This recipe can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will keep best for about 3-5 days!
