1 Small Mixing Bowl

Ingredients

For the filling

For the pop tart

  • 2 sheets pie dough - use gluten free if needed
  • 1 egg for egg wash, optional

For the icing

Instructions

  • Prepare the filling by adding the Chocolate SunButter, coconut milk, and cocoa powder to a pot over low heat on the stove. Continue to stir the pot until the SunButter is melted and the cocoa powder is dissolved. The mixture should be a pudding-like consistency. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Set aside to cool slightly.
    ¼ cup Chocolate SunButter, ⅓ cup coconut milk, 2 tablespoon cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Preheat the oven to 400 F. On a lightly floured surface, roll out both pie sheets to about an 8 X 16 inch rectangle. Transfer one of the sheets to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread the filling on top, leaving about a half inch of space around the edges. Carefully place the other sheet of pie dough over top so it overlaps. Use a sharp knife to trim around the sides if needed. With a fork, press down around all sides of the giant pop tart to seal it together. Poke a few holes in the middle of the pop tart so air can escape. Whisk an egg in a bowl for the egg wash (optional) and brush over the entire pop tart. Bake the pop tart in the oven for 15 - 20 minutes until golden brown. Allow it to cool down off to the side.

  • Once the pop tart has cooled down, prepare the icing by mixing together the Chocolate SunButter, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, milk, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth. You’re looking for a glue-like consistency. If the icing is too thin, add another sprinkle of powdered sugar. If it’s too thick, add a small splash of milk. Gently spread the icing over the top of the pop tart, leaving some room around the edges. Sprinkle some flaky sea salt over top and allow the icing to set for a few minutes before slicing into pieces.
    1 tablespoon Chocolate SunButter, 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon cocoa powder, 1 - 2 tablespoon milk of choice, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, Flaky sea salt

Notes

Storage : Store leftover chocolate pop tarts in an airtight container at room temperature for 1-2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Or, freeze unbaked pop tarts (without icing) for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature, and bake as instructed.
