If you are looking for a healthy, sweet treat this holiday season, look no further! Maria Novak, a Dietetics student here at UW-Madison has a treat just for you. After reaching out to the Dietetics and Nutrition Club, a student organization that has a passion for healthy living and food in the Madison area, Maria came forward with a delicious and nutritious treat for all to munch anytime over the holidays!
Peppermint Bark
Ingredients:
Organic Dark Cooking Chocolate
Coconut Flakes (with or without sugar)
Candycanes
Directions:
Pour the chocolate into a cookie sheet covered in foil. Sprinkle with coconut and crushed candy canes on top. Then, place it in fridge until fully hardened. Break apart, and enjoy!
This peppermint bark is easy, quick, (relatively) healthy, and scrumptious! Also, it is perfect to make for college girls with a chocolate craving before finals… Need I say more?
A big thank you to Maria for the recipe!
Happy Holidays!
