This recipe from Eat Yourself Healthy takes less than 5 minutes to make, and packs an extra gut-loving punch. The dried mango and pistachios are full of prebiotics, which are essentially foods that feed your beneficial microbes. The extra virgin olive oil and dark chocolate drizzle add a bonus polyphenol hit (good plant chemicals that also feed our gut microbes).
Ingredients
Base
- 200g good quality white chocolate
- 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
- 50g good quality dark chocolate (70%+)
Toppers
- 50g dried mango
- 50g crushed pistachios
Method
- Melt the white chocolate in the microwave for 40-60 seconds, stirring rapidly every 15 seconds.
- Stir in the extra virgin olive oil.
- Pour the mixture on to a lined baking tray and thinly spread the chocolate-coated mix and sprinkle on the toppers. Place in the fridge for a few minutes to set.
- Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, melt the dark chocolate in the microwave (again stirring every 15 seconds).
- Once the white chocolate is firm, drizzle on the dark chocolate using a fork. Place in the fridge for 30 minutes (until rock solid), then remove and break into pieces. And enjoy!
