Ingredients

  • 2 cups pecan halves
  • 1 1/4 cups ark chocolate chips I used Ghirardelli 60% coco
  • ¼ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon sea salt

Instructions

  • Line a baking sheet with wax paper and set aside.
  • Heat your dark chocolate chips via a double boiler or the microwave until they are melted smooth. [In the microwave, heat for 30 seconds at a time until melted – stirring constantly].
  • Add the chili, sea salt, and pecans to the chocolate and stir until combined evenly.
  • If it seems too dry, add more melted chocolate.
  • Drop clusters of the chocolate pecans onto the wax paper with a spoon.
  • Sprinkle with a pinch of the unsweetened shredded coconut.
  • Put in the refrigerator for approximately 45 minutes (or until hardened).
  • Enjoy!

Notes

Note: Keep in a cool area. Countertops work well for a day or so. If you are going to store them longer, I recommend keeping them in the refrigerator.
