How to cook it
Prep timer
20:00
- Prep and chill the ingredients before assembling so the finished dish stays crisp and cold.
- 1. Melt 7 ounces unsweetened chocolate and 1 tablespoon butter or coconut oil in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds, or on the stovetop over low heat.
- 2. Stir 1/2 cup peanut butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and 1/2 cup powdered sweetener into the melted chocolate until smooth.
- 3. Combine 3 cups nuts and 3 cups coconut flakes in a large bowl, pour the chocolate mixture over, and stir well to coat.
- 4. Spread the mixture onto a large baking sheet lined with parchment or waxed paper, sprinkle half of the topping (1/2 cup powdered sweetener mixed with 2 tablespoons peanut flour if using) over the top, and refrigerate until firm.
- 5. Once firm, sprinkle the remaining topping over the trail mix, mix well, break up large pieces, and store in the refrigerator.
- Taste before serving and adjust the salt, lemon, vinegar, or herbs so the flavors stay bright.
