I baked this Vegan Cookie Bark for my niece’s birthday party last weekend. The cookie pieces stayed crunchy under the chocolate, and my coworker loved it.
Easy Vegan Cookie Bark Recipe
This vegan cookie bark features layers of melted dark chocolate topped with crunchy nuts, seeds, and your favorite vegan-friendly candies. Preparing this recipe takes about 30 minutes, and it serves approximately 12 pieces.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces dark chocolate (vegan-friendly)
- 1 cup mixed nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, pecans) chopped
- 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
- 1/4 cup dried fruit (e.g., cranberries, raisins) chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips (optional for drizzling)
Instructions
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate in 30-second increments, stirring in between until smooth.
- Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy removal later.
- Mix Toppings: In a separate bowl, combine the chopped nuts, pumpkin seeds, dried fruit, and sea salt.
- Assemble the Bark: Pour the melted chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it into an even layer. Sprinkle the mixed toppings evenly over the chocolate and press down gently to ensure they stick.
- Optional Drizzle: If using vegan chocolate chips, melt them separately and drizzle over the bark for added decoration.
- Chill: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely set.
