For Bark

4 ½ pounds milk chocolate, cut into chunks
4 ounces bee pollen
6 ounces Michigan dried blueberries
4 ounces slivered California almonds, toasted
1 teaspoon black lava sea salt

步骤

To Temper the Chocolate:

Melt 3 pounds of the chocolate in a plastic bowl in 30-second intervals in the microwave until the temperature reaches almost 115 degrees F.
Stir after each 30 seconds.
When the temperature is close to 115 degrees, lower the cooking time to 15 seconds.
Do not overheat the chocolate or it will seize.
Add the remaining 1 ½ pounds chocolate to the bowl and stir until the temperature is 86 degrees F.

For Bark

Stir 3 ounces of the bee pollen into the tempered chocolate.
Spread it on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper or an acetate sheet to ¼ inch thick.
Quickly top the chocolate with the blueberries, almonds, salt, and the remaining 1 ounce bee pollen.
Let the bark set and break it into pieces.
