Ingredients
Scale
200g dark chocolate (minimum 70% cocoa)
1 cup sweetened condensed milk (approximately 300g)
2 tbsp unsalted butter
1/2 cup chopped almonds or pistachios (approximately 75g)
1/4 cup dried dates or cranberries (optional, approximately 40g)
1 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of sea salt
Instructions
Clear your workspace and line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a saucepan over low heat, combine dark chocolate, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Stir gently until melted and smooth (about 5-7 minutes).
Remove from heat and stir in chopped nuts, dried fruits (if using), and vanilla extract until evenly mixed.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until firm enough to cut into bars.
Lift out of the pan using parchment paper, then cut into squares or rectangles to serve.
Notes
Feel free to customize with different nuts or dried fruits.
A sprinkle of sea salt on top before cooling can enhance flavor.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
