Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup hulled unsalted pumpkin seeds, also called pepitas
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, such as E. Guittard
  • 1 1/2 ounces finely chopped chocolate toffee bar, such as Heath

Method

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment or waxed paper, or use a silicone baking sheet, and set aside.
  • Heat pumpkin seeds in a medium frying pan over medium heat and toast until golden brown, about 6 minutes.
  • Let cool slightly, then mix with cayenne until well blended; set aside.
  • Melt chocolate and toffee bar in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until smooth.
  • Remove from heat and mix in 3/4 of the pumpkin seed mixture.
  • Spread chocolate mixture onto the lined baking sheet very thinly, into roughly a 12-by-10-inch rectangle.
  • Sprinkle remaining pumpkin seed mixture over top.
  • Let set in a cool, dry location.
  • Once bark is hard, break up into shards.
