Dark Chocolate Super Bites

Recipe by The View From the Great Island

Healthy Dark Chocolate Detox Bites are anti-oxidant rich dark chocolates topped with fruits, nuts, and seeds ~ they're just as pretty as they are delicious!

Ingredients

• 8 oz dark chocolate ( I used Trader Joe's 73% Super Dark chocolate bars)
• assorted dried fruits, chopped nuts, and seeds

Method

1. Lay out a piece of parchment paper, or waxed paper, or foil.
2. Chop the chocolate into small pieces and put in a microwave safe glass measuring cup. Microwave for 60 seconds, and then stir. Microwave for another 30 seconds, and then stir again to completely melt the chocolate. If there are still lumps, microwave for another short burst and stir again.
3. Use a spoon to make small rounds of chocolate onto the parchment paper. Let the chocolate fall from the spoon and it will naturally form a more or less round shape. You can nudge it with your spoon if you like. Work with one at a time, and sprinkle each round of chocolate with an assortment of your healthy add-ins while the chocolate is still hot. Make them whatever size you like, but mine were about 2 to 2 1/2 inches in diameter.
4. Let the chocolate set at room temperature, or put the bites in the refrigerator to speed things up. If you plan to refrigerate the medallions it helps to put the parchment right on a baking sheet or tray so you can transfer it straight to the fridge.
