Chocolate and Nut Butter

Chocolate and Nut Butter

OK so I know you don’t really need a recipe for this, but I thought I’d write it for you anyway ?

This is my latest go-to when I feel like having dessert on a Saturday night.

It only takes a second to pull together and satisfies that urge for something to round out the meal. Without loading you down with sugar and carbs.

Chocolate and Nut Butter

Total Time 3 minutes
Servings 2 people

Ingredients

  • 4-6 teaspoons nut butter
  • 2-4 squares dark chocolate 70% cocoa solids+
  • 1 pinch sea salt flakes

Instructions

  1. Divide nut butter between two tiny bowls or glasses. I use Chinese tea cups.
  2. Break chocolate into bite sized fingers. Dip them into the peanut butter. Sprinkle with sea salt flakes.

Variations & Substitutions

nut butter options – peanut, almond, cashew, brazil nut butters will all work. If you have a high powered food processor – pecans make the most amazing nut butter. Just saying.

nut-free – enjoy the chocolate on its own. Or try it with tahini (for tahini fans only – not everyone will like this).

paleo (grain, legume & dairy-free) – use almond butter.

Prepare Ahead

No need!
