;If you like dark chocolate with sweet berries and crunchy nuts, you will absolutely love this natural treat. Loaded with minerals and healthy fatty acids, this chocolate bar hardens quickly in the freezer and is actually firmer than normal chocolates made as they are with coconut oil.

Ingredients (serves 6)

• 1/2 cup cacao butter (melted amount)
  
  
• 1/2 cup cacao powder, sifted
  
  
• 2 Tbsp agave nectar
  
  
• 1/4 cup goji berries
  
  
• 1/4 cup almonds, chopped coarsely

Directions

• On a 7" plate (you can use the bottom of a springform pan), arrange the almonds and goji berries so they are uniform.
  
  
• Mix the cacao butter, powder and agave nectar until smooth. Pour gently over the berries and almonds, until uniformly covered.
  
  
• Place the plate in the freezer for the chocolate to firm up, about 15 minutes.
