Chilli and chocolate together… need we say more?! This tantalising pair is a match made in heaven. Rich cacao and creamy tahini are perfectly balanced with a touch of spice from the chilli flakes, a dash of sweetness from the maple syrup, and a hint of saltiness from mineral-rich sea salt. Make it to share with a lover, or keep it all to yourself – either way this chocolate bark will surely delight the senses.
