White Chocolate Bark

Were you a Milky Bar fanatic as a kid First name / dear friend?

It was right up there with Peanut Slabs and Snickers for me.

After two snowy weeks skiing Arrowtown’s peaks, I felt inspired to share a treat that matched those winter‑white vibes. So here’s a creamy white chocolatey creation the whole family can throw together in one simple bowl.

Here’s why you’ll love this White Chocolate Bark:

• Seven ingredients, one step — melt, mix, pour; fridge takes it from there.
• No dairy or refined sugar — cacao butter + cashews bring that Milky‑Bar snap.
• Kid‑proof — pop the toppings on the bench and let them create their own snowy creations.

Cacao butter isn’t just chocolate’s backbone; its stearic and oleic acids are heart‑friendly fats. The fats in cacao butter have been shown to be less bioavailable than other fats, and thus have minimal effect on serum cholesterol (Weisburger, 2001).Cashews pull their weight too: a meta‑analysis showed a daily handful lowered total cholesterol 5 % in eight weeks (Mah 2017).

Sweet treats, smarter fats.

Give this stunning white chocolate reincarnate a try this weekend — simple, nourishing, and totally nostalgic.

I’d love to hear if you try this one! What toppings will you add? I personally went for pistachios, cranberries (salty crunch + sweet tang = heaven), along with crunchy activated hazelnuts, freeze dried raspberries (so much colour), and a sprinkling of bitter cacao nibs. But go wild. Simple roasted/activated almonds and raisins would also be divine.

To set 2 hours hrs

Total Time 2 hours hrs 10 minutes mins

Ingredients

White Chocolate

• ¾ c cacao butter (melted)
• ¼ c cashew butter
• ¼ c coconut butter
• ¼ c coconut cream (the top hard portion)
• 3 tbsp liquid sweetener (brown rice syrup, coconut nectar or agave)
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 5 drops vanilla oil (optional)
• Pinch sea salt

Toppings

• Pistachios
• Hazelnuts
• Buckwheat
• Cacao nibs
• Cranberries
• Sour cherries
• Freeze dried raspberries

Instructions

• Melt cacao butter, add with remaining ingredients to a blender, then blend until super smooth.
• Pour into a tin/container, sprinkle with toppings, then place in the freezer for 1-2 hours until set.
• Remove slice and enjoy! Store in freezer, best served straight from freezer (it softens quick).

Recipe Notes

• Make it nut free – replace the cashew butter with an equal measure of coconut butter, and use seeds for topping instead of nuts.
• Make it keto – swap the sweetener for erythritol to taste, and omit the dried fruit from sprinkles. I’d recommend starting with 3/4 of the amount of sweetener if you’re using this option.
• Make it low sugar – swap the sweetener for stevia. Try using 1/4 – 1/2 tsp at first, then taste to see if it’s to your like – stevia’s often very strong so you want to take it slowly!
• Make a milk chocolate version – add 2 tbsp raw cacao powder.
• Be sure to use only the top hard portion of the coconut cream. To make it easy to access, you can put your can of coconut cream in the fridge for a few hours first (it separates it out).
