Preparation

Step 1

1. Fill a stock pot with 2 inches of water and place over medium high heat to simmer.

2. Place the bowl over the barely simmering stock pot (do not let boil), add the butter and sugar replacement and mix together with a rubber spatula creating a slurry.

3. Add the chopped unsweetened chocolate and slowly stir for about 2 minutes until just melted and a mud-like consistency. If it thickens too quickly, add a little more half and half.

4. Remove from heat and spread evenly onto the aluminum foil lined plate, sprinkle with chopped nuts and press them into the chocolate. Pop the plate into the freezer for about 10 minutes to harden and then easily remove the chocolate bark from the aluminum foil. Break into pieces and stack back on the plate to serve!
