Ingredients:

  • 200g (7oz) strawberries, sliced
  • 1/2 cup (40g) shredded coconut
  • 150g (5.3oz) dark chocolate, melted
  • 1 tsp coconut oil

Method:

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients:
  • Start by slicing 200g of fresh strawberries. Set them aside.
  • Measure out 1/2 cup of shredded coconut. This will add a lovely texture to your bark.
  • Melt 150g of dark chocolate. You can do this either using a microwave in short bursts or by using a heatproof bowl over simmering water. Stir occasionally until smooth.
  • Mix in 1 teaspoon of coconut oil into the melted chocolate. This helps in achieving a smoother consistency and adds a hint of coconut flavor.
  1. Assembly:
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. This will prevent the bark from sticking and make cleanup easier.
  • Spread the sliced strawberries evenly across the lined tray. Ensure they are in a single layer for even distribution.
  • Sprinkle the shredded coconut generously over the strawberries. The coconut not only adds crunch but also complements the sweetness of the berries.
  1. Chocolate Coating:
  • Now, pour the melted chocolate mixture over the strawberries and coconut. Use a spoon or spatula to spread it out evenly, covering all the strawberries and coconut.
  1. Final Touches:
  • For a touch of sophistication, sprinkle a little sea salt over the top of the chocolate. This adds a subtle contrast to the sweetness and enhances the flavors.
  1. Chilling Time:
  • Place the baking tray in the freezer for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely set. This step is crucial as it allows the bark to firm up so you can break it into delicious pieces.
  1. Enjoy Your Strawberry Bark:
  • Once set, remove the tray from the freezer and break the bark into rustic pieces. Serve immediately and indulge in the wonderful combination of juicy strawberries, crunchy coconut, and decadent dark chocolate.
