Chocolate and Peanut Butter Bark by Gymbags and Gladrags

If you’re like me and sick of overindulging on all the sweet treats on offer over Christmas then this easy-to-make recipe for a healthier Chocolate and Peanut Butter Bark is perfect for you. Store it in the freezer so that it’s ready for when you fancy something sweet without overindulging and adding to the Christmas bulge.

The saltiness and crunchiness of the peanut butter next to the creamy sweetness of the ‘chocolate’, which is actually made from Bioglan Superfoods Cacao… It’s just perfect. Plus, cacao is naturally high in fibre and protein, it fights fatigue and antioxidising. So, put down the chocolate selection boxes and whip up these sweet treats instead.
