Luke's Rocky Road Bites
Ingredients:
2 cups dark chocolate, melted
1/2 cup toasted macadamias
1/2 cup toasted pistachios
1/2 cup toasted shredded coconut
1/2 cup dried blueberries
Method:
Melt your dark chocolate and set aside until slightly cooled but not set.
Line a 6-hole large muffin tray with paper liners.
Pour your dark chocolate evenly between the 6-hole muffin tray paper liners, and then scatter each with a mix of macadamias, pistachios, shredded coconut and dried blueberries. You can use a spoon to stir some of it in, and do a final sprinkle of some extra on top if you like.
Transfer to the fridge to set until firm.
Enjoy as a single bite or slice into smaller pieces to serve. Store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
