Betsy's Infusion Notes:
🍫 Adjusting CBD Dosage: You can adjust the amount of CBD oil based on the strength of the oil and your personal preference. Start with a lower amount and increase as needed.
🍫 Sweetness: The dark chocolate is rich and bittersweet, but if you prefer a sweeter bark, you can add a teaspoon of maple syrup or agave syrup to the melted chocolate before adding the CBD oil.
🍫 Nut Choices: Feel free to customize the nuts based on your preference. Pistachios or hazelnuts also work well with dark chocolate.
🍫 Storage: Keep the chocolate bark in the refrigerator to maintain its firmness and freshness. It will stay good for up to 2 weeks in an airtight container.
