Ingredients (Serves 8)
12 oz (340g) dark chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup (60g) almonds
1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
1/4 teaspoon salt
Optional: 1 teaspoon orange food coloring (for a pumpkin hue)
Optional: 1/4 cup white chocolate chips (for drizzle)
Instructions
Prep the Almonds: Secure the Geedel Rotary Cheese Grater to your counter with its stable suction base. Attach the 5-blade set and use the food pusher to safely grind the almonds into a fine texture. The sharp premium blades ensure even grinding for a smooth bark.
Melt the Chocolate: In a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate over low heat, stirring until smooth. If using a microwave, heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between. Add pumpkin spice, salt, and orange food coloring (if desired) to the melted chocolate, mixing well.
Assemble the Bark: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the melted chocolate mixture evenly onto the sheet, about 1/4-inch thick. Sprinkle the ground almonds over the top, pressing lightly to adhere.
Add Drizzle (Optional): Melt the white chocolate chips in a separate bowl and drizzle over the bark in a zigzag pattern for a spooky effect.
Chill: Refrigerate the bark for at least 1 hour, or until fully set. Break into irregular pieces to resemble a haunted landscape.
Serve: Arrange on a platter and serve as a spooky dessert for your Halloween party.
