Endangered Species Chocolate Oat Milk + Salted Almond 55% Dark Chocolate Bar
What it is
This is a dark chocolate bar made with oat milk and pieces of salted almonds. The chocolate has a 55% cacao content, which means it has a balanced flavor profile, not too bitter and not too sweet. The oat milk contributes to a smoother texture than traditional dairy-based chocolate. The inclusion of salted almonds adds a savory crunch and depth of flavor to the overall experience.
How people cook with it
This chocolate bar is perfect for enjoying on its own as a satisfying treat. It can also be incorporated into various dessert preparations.
- Enjoy as a snack

Unwrap the bar and break off a piece to savor the rich chocolate flavor. For a more indulgent experience, you can gently melt the chocolate in a double boiler or microwave in short intervals, stirring frequently. This melted chocolate can be used to dip fruits, cookies, or pretzels. Alternatively, chop the bar into small pieces to sprinkle over ice cream, yogurt, or baked goods like muffins and cookies. It also pairs wonderfully with a hot beverage.
