Last week I fell into an abundance of pomegranates… thanks to my sister-in-law! We had a lot of pomegranates and while my favorite way to enjoy them is to eat them as is, I also love the combination of chocolate and pomegranates together.
Growing up my mom would always get a bag of chocolate covered pomegranates for the holidays and my sister and I enjoyed eating them so much! We would eat one at a time and eat them slowly!
This bark is a great memory of those special treats from my childhood. I love how the dark chocolate isn’t too sweet and the pomegranates burst in your mouth when you eat it.
This is also the easiest dessert ever! It only has 3 ingredients (two really) and is wonderful to put out for guests during the holidays. It keeps best in the fridge and can stay there for up to 5 days. So delicious!
What You’ll Need
- Dark Chocolate
- Pomegranate Arils
- Flaked Sea Salt
I hope you enjoy this bark as much as I do. What other variations of bark do you like?

Chocolate Pomegranate Bark
Ingredients
- 8 oz dark chocolate (66% cacao or darker)
- 1 cup pomegranate arils divided
- ½ tsp flaked sea salt
Instructions
-
Prepare a small baking sheet or shallow pan with parchment paper and set aside.

Open your pomegranate and separate the pith from the arils. You will need 1 cup of arils for this recipe. Eat the others!
-
In a small heat proof bowl, break your chocolate into pieces and place in bowl. Set it over a small pot of simmering water to create a double boiler and mix chocolate occasionally until just melted. Do not over heat.
-
Take the chocolate off the pot of water and stir in ⅔ of the pomegranate arils until combined well.
-
Pour and spread evenly in the parchment paper lined sheet. Then sprinkle the top with the remaining arils and sea salt.
