Ingredient Notes
- Dark chocolate: I use dark chocolate chips, but you can also use milk chocolate or white chocolate.
- Pomegranate seeds: Use fresh pomegranate seeds for the best-tasting dark chocolate pomegranate bites. These are also called pomegranate arils.
- Sea salt: I love using flakey sea salt on top of these bites.
See recipe card for quantities.
Instructions
Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
Melt the dark chocolate chips over a double boiler or in the microwave.
Stir the melted chocolate until smooth.
Use a spoon to scoop 1 tablespoon of chocolate onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and swirl the chocolate into discs. Top with pomegranate arils/seeds.
Continue spooning chocolate into discs on the baking sheet until all the chocolate is gone. Top each chocolate disc with a handful of pomegranate seeds.
Sprinkle flakey sea salt on top of each pomegranate chocolate bite.
Let the chocolate harden and enjoy.
Hint: If melting the chocolate in the microwave, melt it in a microwave-safe bowl for 20-second intervals for two minutes. Stir the melted chocolate between each interval.
Substitutions
- Dark chocolate - instead of dark chocolate chips, you can use milk chocolate chips. Any size of chocolate chip will work including mini chocolate chips.
- Pomegranate seeds - use fresh raspberries instead of pomegranates if you can find pomegranate seeds.
- Chocolate chips - use a chocolate bar instead of chocolate chips. Try using a Lindt 70% dark chocolate bar.
Variations
- Pumpkin - add 1 tablespoon of pumpkin seeds to the chocolate mixture to pumpkin seed chocolate bites.
- Vegan Chocolate Chips - use vegan chocolate chips instead of regular chocolate chips to make these pomegranate & dark chocolate bites vegan.
- Kid friendly - add crushed potato chips (ketchup chips!)

Top tip
Melt the chocolate slowly to prevent burning!
