Pandora’s Healthy Chocolate Nachos (click here for printer-friendly version) 4 servings
These “nachos” make a festive party dessert for the holidays. They’re yummy, easy and fun, and more nutritious than many of the holiday standards.
12 Food Should Taste Good Chocolate Chips (These are tortilla-style chips that have added cocoa. They are not at all like semisweet chips and are not sweet.) Or your favorite tortilla chips.
Pandora’s Miracle Low-Fat Sauce (Recipe below)*
12 mini marshmallows 2 oz. pecans, almonds, pistachios &/or walnuts, coarsely chopped 2 oz. dried cherries, blueberries, cranberries, or whatever dried fruit you like. You may even use dates. 1 oz. white chocolate, grated
Arrange the chips on a microwaveable plate. Put a half teaspoonful of sauce on each chip then arrange some dried fruit and nuts on each chip. Add a marshmallow to each chip and sprinkle grated white chocolate over all. Microwave for just 10 to 15 seconds, or heat them under a broiler for about a minute, just to puff up the marshmallows. In either case, watch carefully to make sure the marshmallows don’t explode or get over browned. Serve immediately
