Time 1h15m

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 teaspoons virgin coconut oil
1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
1/2 cup chopped hazelnuts
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup chopped cashews
1/2 cup trail mix (nuts only)
1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/3 cup honey
Kosher salt
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush an 8-by-8-inch dish with 1 teaspoon of the coconut oil and set aside.
  • Combine the coconut flakes, hazelnuts, walnuts, cashews, trail mix and flaxseed and spread into an even layer on a baking sheet. Toast until lightly golden, 10 to 12 minutes, then transfer to a large heatproof bowl. Set aside.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the maple syrup, honey and 1/2 teaspoon salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the temperature on a candy thermometer reads 260 degrees F, about 5 minutes. Immediately pour over the nut mixture and stir to coat. Use a rubber spatula to press the mixture into the prepared dish and let cool until set, about 30 minutes.
  • To make the chocolate drizzle, combine the chocolate chips and remaining 1 teaspoon coconut oil in a medium heatproof bowl and place over a small pot of simmering water. Heat, stirring, until melted and smooth. (Alternatively, combine the chocolate and oil and microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring often, until melted and smooth.)
  • Drizzle the chocolate over the mixture. When set, cut into bars and serve.

I'm not a big fan of dark chocolate, but these bars were surprisingly good. The sweetness of the nuts balances out the bitterness of the chocolate perfectly.
