Craving something sweet but want to stay on track with your WW plan? This Chocolate Toffee Bark is a lighter version of the classic treat—just as delicious but with a few smart swaps to keep the points down!

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter (or use a reduced-fat butter for fewer points)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar (or try a sugar substitute like stevia or monk fruit to lower sugar content)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups dark chocolate chips (choose a lower-sugar variety for fewer points)
  • 1 cup chopped pecans or almonds (optional, and use sparingly to keep points lower)

Instructions:

  1. Prep the Pan: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.
  2. Make the Toffee: Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add sugar (or sugar substitute) and salt, stirring until combined. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and let it cook for about 12-15 minutes, or until the toffee reaches a deep amber color. Stir in vanilla extract and remove from heat.
  3. Spread the Toffee: Immediately pour the toffee onto the baking sheet and spread it into an even layer.
  4. Add the Chocolate: Sprinkle the dark chocolate chips over the hot toffee. Let them melt, then spread the melted chocolate over the toffee.
  5. Optional Nuts: If you’re using nuts, sprinkle them on top, but remember—this will add extra points, so use them sparingly!
  6. Chill: Refrigerate the bark for about 2 hours or until set.
  7. Break & Serve: Once the bark is fully chilled, break it into pieces and enjoy!

WW Points (Approximate):

  • SmartPoints: For a lighter version, you can estimate the points using the ingredients you chose. Substituting with lower-calorie or sugar-free options can help reduce points!
    (Always check your WW app for more precise calculations based on your ingredient choices.)

Pro Tips:

  • For the lowest points, opt for a sugar substitute and a lower-calorie chocolate.
  • Keep portions in check—cutting the bark into smaller pieces will help you control how many points you enjoy at a time.

This Chocolate Toffee Bark will satisfy your sweet tooth without breaking your WW plan. Enjoy a small piece and indulge in the perfect balance of sweet and crunchy! 🍫✨
