Dried Cherry and Pistachio Chocolate Bark

I am kind of obsessed with cherries over here lately. First it was these brownies and then it was this protein shake and now it’s this Dried Cherry and Pistachio Chocolate Bark.

Oddly enough, I hated cherries as a kid. I was convinced they tasted like the really awful artificially flavored drinks, candies, and medicine so I would not even try them. Luckily, I finally did try them as a teenager and I have been eating pounds and pounds of them every season since.



This chocolate bark has all the usual players-nuts, fruit, and chocolate of course, but the addition of coconut butter makes this a real treat. It adds a subtle coconut flavor and an extra bit of creaminess as it melts in your mouth. Of course if you’re one of those kooky people who don’t like coconut( daughter #1 I’m looking at you), I guess you can leave it out if you really must.  I used to be one of those kooky people too. Another one of those misconceptions I had growing up, only having had the outrageously sweet stuff found in every supermarket baking aisle.

The great thing about this recipe (if you want to call it that) is it requires very little effort, just a few ingredients, and in just a short time you can be indulging in a sweet and salty, crunchy and creamy treat. Oh yeah, it’s got a little of everything going on.
