The best recipe for Boo Bark
I’ve seen so many variations of Halloween Bark floating around Pinterest these days. They look beautiful, but are all loaded with artificial coloring and chemicals. Here is my healthier take on it, Boo Bark!
I found the eyes and natural food coloring at whole foods. I melted coconut butter and coconut oil together to create something similar to white chocolate. It gave the bark a nice coconutty flavor! I added brown rice crisps, dried cranberries and walnuts for texture, but feel free to add any of your favorite healthy snacks! Pistachios, sunflower seeds, dried apple pieces, peanuts or dried kiwi would all work well! Try this adorable recipe for Vegan Googly Eyes from Fork & Beans!
