When rich dark chocolate meets the salty crunch of peanuts, it&#8217;s seriously indulgent. This yummy new addition to the Endangered Species Chocolate collection hit store shelves earlier this year, and there&#8217;s an exciting sweepstakes to go along with it! <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zulily.com\/lp\/save-the-elephants-sweepstakes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Enter for a chance to win<\/a> a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to visit the Elephant Watch Camp, an elephant orphanage and more in Africa.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30893\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wazwu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/elephant-watch-camp-michael-nichols.jpg\" alt=\"Endangered Species Chocolate - Elephant Bar Sweepstakes\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wazwu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/elephant-watch-camp-michael-nichols.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.wazwu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/elephant-watch-camp-michael-nichols-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.wazwu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/elephant-watch-camp-michael-nichols-768x511.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>8 Ways to Enjoy Endangered Species Chocolate<\/h3>\n<p>As much as I enjoy a great chocolate bar on its own, it&#8217;s much more fun and delicious to use chocolate in a recipe. On top of that, it makes for some Insta-worthy photo ops. Here are some ideas on how to enjoy Endangered Species Chocolate, and I&#8217;d love to hear your suggestions in the comments below!<\/p>\n<p><strong>1) Blend.<\/strong> Turn on that blender and toss some chocolate into your favorite smoothie or milkshake. One of my personal faves is a blueberry chocolate concoction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2) Melt.<\/strong> Next time you&#8217;re ready to enjoy a mug of hot chocolate or coffee, melt a piece of chocolate in there. Trust me, you&#8217;ll thank me for that tip.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3) Drizzle.<\/strong> Did someone say chocolate drizzle? Chop the chocolate bar into small pieces, then melt it down with the double boiler method. Drizzle it over pancakes, ice cream, and more!<\/p>\n<p><strong>4) Dip.<\/strong> It&#8217;s not that hard to make your own chocolate dipped treats, but for some reason, it always looks so impressive. What&#8217;s your favorite treat to dip? Mine is juicy strawberries, of course.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30898\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wazwu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/C05F3452-E867-4092-8F58-6B460590D2B3.jpg\" alt=\"Endangered Species Chocolate - Acai Bowl\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1251\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wazwu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/C05F3452-E867-4092-8F58-6B460590D2B3.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.wazwu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/C05F3452-E867-4092-8F58-6B460590D2B3-480x600.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.wazwu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/C05F3452-E867-4092-8F58-6B460590D2B3-768x961.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>5) Toppings.<\/strong> Whether you&#8217;re decorating an a<span class=\"st\">\u00e7a\u00ed<\/span> bowl, layer cake, or mason jar parfait, there&#8217;s always room for chocolate. Chop the chocolate bar into small pieces, then sprinkle away. Or whip out that microplane grater for delicate chocolate ribbons.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6) Cookies.<\/strong> Instead of using store bought chocolate chips, add coarsely chopped chocolate to your next batch of cookies, bars, or any other recipe that calls for chocolate chips. I guarantee it&#8217;ll add an extra wow factor.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7) Go savory.<\/strong> This may sound a little out there, but add some coarsely chopped chocolate the next time you make a big pot of chili. There&#8217;s something about the combo of spicy smoky notes and rich dark chocolate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>8) Platters<\/strong>. Everyone loves a good wine, cheese, and fruit platter, but when you add chocolate to the mix, it&#8217;s even better. Perfect for home date night or a gathering with friends!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30899\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wazwu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/E38DF65E-63B2-4665-8BA2-C933FDFF3D0F.jpg\" alt=\"Endangered Species Chocolate - Cheese, Fruit, Chocolate Platter\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1251\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wazwu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/E38DF65E-63B2-4665-8BA2-C933FDFF3D0F.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.wazwu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/E38DF65E-63B2-4665-8BA2-C933FDFF3D0F-480x600.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.wazwu.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/E38DF65E-63B2-4665-8BA2-C933FDFF3D0F-768x961.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><i>Note: SPONSORED.
