Directions
- Make
the chocolate ‘tortilla’ chips. In a double boiler, melt the chocolate
chips, then turn off the heat and slowly stir in the FlavCity Protein
Smoothie until well combined. - Once combined, pour the melted
chocolate onto a 13” x 9” parchment-lined sheet tray, and smooth it out
evenly from edge to edge using a spatula. You should have a layer that’s
about ¼ inch thick. - Place the sheet tray in the fridge for 10
minutes, or until the chocolate mixture is set. Remove the tray from the
fridge and then lift the chocolate out of the tray using the parchment
paper as a sling. While the chocolate is still on the paper, cut it into
2-3 inch pieces–either diamond-shaped or triangles–using a pizza
cutter. Then lift and place the parchment with cut chocolate pieces back
onto the sheet tray. Place the sheet tray back in the fridge for
another 10-20 minutes, or until the chocolate pieces are cold and fully
set. - Make the strawberry salsa. Wash, then finely dice the
strawberries. Add them to a bowl and dust them with the maple sugar.
Stir to combine and set aside for 10 minutes at room temperature so they
release all their juices. - Once the chocolate is set, remove
the tray from the fridge. Arrange the cut chocolate pieces on a small
platter and serve with the strawberry salsa for dipping. Enjoy!
Note: If using FlavCity vegan protein smoothie, be sure to double the amount to 2 scoops.
