Ingredients
- 1 (15-ounce) can of garbanzo beans rinsed and drained
- 1 teaspoon of olive oil
- dash of sea salt
- 1 cup of vegan semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C). Lay the garbanzo beans on a flat surface and pat dry with a towel or paper towel. You want your beans to be as dry as possible before roasting.
- In a medium bowl, toss the garbanzo beans and olive oil together. Once evenly coated, lay them out on a baking sheet and sprinkle with salt.
- Once roasted, remove the garbanzo beans and set them aside to cool. While they’re cooling, melt your vegan chocolate chips. You can either double boil them, or microwave them in 45 second increments, stirring in between, until they are smooth and melted.
- Once the vegan chocolate is melted, combine with the chickpeas in a bowl and transfer to an 8x8 baking pan and spread evenly. Bark should be about a quarter inch thick, or as thick as a chickpea is tall.
- Put it in the freezer and break it up once it is completely solid.
Equipments used:
Notes
- Use good quality vegan chocolate: It’s the dominant flavor, so choose well.
- Use cooked chickpeas: I use canned. You can cook them yourself, if preferred, but don’t attempt it with raw or soaked chickpeas.
- For the crispiest chickpeas: Make sure to pat them thoroughly dry. Moisture can lead to steaming rather than becoming crispy. Also, monitor them – if they brown too quickly while remaining soft, drop the temperature by 10-15 degrees and continue to roast.
- To save time: Use packaged, roasted chickpeas (plain or lightly salted).
