Servings: 6
Ingredients
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips 70% or higher cocoa content
- 1 cup fresh blueberries washed and dried
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- ½ tablespoon chopped pistachios optional
Optional Toppings
- Chopped nuts
- Another chocolate drizzle
- A sprinkle of sea salt
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet or large plate with parchment paper and set it aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Make sure the blueberries are completely dry before adding them to the chocolate. I like to try to wash them the night before if possible. Water causes chocolate to ‘seize,’ making it dull and clumpy.
- Gently pour the dry blueberries into the melted chocolate and stir gently to coat them evenly.
- Using a spoon, carefully create clusters of the chocolate-coated blueberries on the prepared parchment paper, making sure they are spaced apart.
- While the chocolate is still slightly wet, sprinkle crushed pistachios over the top of each cluster to add a delightful crunch and nutty flavor.
- Place the baking sheet or plate with the chocolate-covered blueberry clusters in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.
- Once the chocolate has hardened, enjoy! Transfer the clusters to an airtight container and store in the fridge for 2-3 days.
