Is there anything more alluring than the combination of something fruity, something nutty, and something chocolatey? If there is, we’re all ears, because this chocolate bark, made with pineberries and peanut butter, has us enthralled.
P.S. If you don’t have pineberries, strawberries are a perfectly acceptable swap! And not a fan of peanut butter? Almond butter or any other nut butter works just as well.

Pine Berry-Peanut Butter Bark
Ingredients
- 2 cups pineberries (or strawberries), tops removed, sliced lengthwise into ¼” pieces
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- Flaky sea salt, for garnish
Instructions
- Arrange pineberries in a layer on a sheet of parchment paper, alternating between the tip and bottom of the berry so you have as little gapping as possible.
- In a heatproof bowl, microwave peanut butter in 20 second intervals, stirring in between, for about 60 seconds total, until peanut butter is runny, then spread over pineberries. Transfer to freezer for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add chocolate chips and coconut oil to another heatproof bowl and microwave in 20 second intervals, stirring in between, for about 60 to 90 seconds, until chocolate is melted. Take bark out of the freezer and spread chocolate over the peanut butter.
- FInish with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt on top of the chocolate and let freeze for at least 2 hours or overnight. Cut into squares or break into pieces before serving.
Notes
Bark can be stored in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.
What are pineberries?
Don’t let the pale color fool you—these aren’t unripe strawberries. Pineberries are a unique white berry with a pineapple-like flavor and a texture just like your favorite red strawberry. Slightly blush-toned with rosy pink seeds, pineberries are sweet, aromatic, and perfect for smoothies, cereal, oatmeal, or as a fresh topping for desserts. If you’re looking to try something new, pineberries are a fun, fruity twist on a classic favorite.
