Instructions

Melt cocoa butter over very low heat, or in the top of a double boiler.
Remove from heat. Ensure that the cocoa butter is no warmer than room temperature.
Add powdered sweetener, 2 tablespoons at a time, stirring well to combine after each addition.
Add protein powder, if using, stirring well to combine after each addition.
Open vanilla bean, if using. Scrape the insides of the bean with a knife. Add scrapings and salt to melted cocoa butter mixture, stirring well to combine.
If necessary, pour mixture into a small bowl and process with an immersion blender. Alternatively, place in a blender and process at low to medium speed to combine.
Pour blended mixture into an 8x8 baking pan (really, any size will do) and let sit to cool. Alternatively, place in refrigerator or freezer to accelerate cooling.
Using a knife, gently break the hardened mass into large pieces and remove from baking pan.
Place large pieces of chocolate bark onto a cutting board and cut into desired-size pieces.
Store in an airtight container (if you don't eat them all!)

Notes

Use Low Heat Only: Make sure that you heat the cocoa butter on the lowest setting possible. Overheating causes the rest of the ingredients to not blend in as well. You can end up with a mealy sweet layer under a layer of pure cocoa butter. Kind of like uber-sweet candy topped with candle wax.Edible, but definitely not yummy.

Stevia Extract Option: You can omit the powdered sweetener and simply use powdered stevia extract, but I find that using more than one alternative sweetener results in a more "true sugar" taste. If you use only stevia, increase the amount to 10-11 scoops, or 5/16 teaspoon.

Sugar Alcohol Options: Erythritol and stevia blends into the cocoa butter better than xylitol, but use whatever you prefer.

You could use this DIY Truvia too, but it's more concentrated than sugar so note that you'll need to use less.

Powdered Milk Alternative: You should be able to use powdered coconut milk instead of protein powder if you'd like. Other powdered dairy-free milks might work as well but I haven't tried any of them yet.
