Vegan Salted Macadamia Nut White Chocolate Toffee
Let’s talk holiday desserts!
If you’re from the U.S., I guarantee you’ve tried or at least heard of the famous “Christmas Crack” lol. While the name is interesting, it all makes sense as the dessert is so good. Bonus, it’s so easy and the options are endless with flavors.
Homemade toffee bark is literally made with just a handful of ingredients and takes minute to throw together. This version features the staple ingredients, but is made with dairy free white chocolate and uses toasted macadamia nuts and salt for a fun modern spin! The combination of the nuts and salt with the white chocolate, truly elevates this classic dessert.
What’s also great about this dessert? You can throw it on saltines, matzoh, or even graham crackers! I’ve also seen people throw mint candies on top and countless other approaches. The final result is something that’s salty, sweet, and everything you need in a holiday treat!
It’s quick, easy, affordable, mine features sugar free chocolate, the toasted pecans are the perfect pairing, the flake salt further enhances the chocolate flavor, you could throw in various extracts, it can easily be made in bulk, perfect as a holiday gift, features vegan butter, you can use coconut sugar if desired, it’s classic, and honestly, so good you could make it year round and nobody would judge you!
If you’re searching for holiday desserts that are so seamless, you have to try my New Salted Macadamia Nut White Chocolate Toffee!
