Don’t be fooled by the name, this stuff isn’t for the birds! It’s a dark chocolaty, crunchy, munchy, whole grain, sugar free, high fiber snack. A bowl of this topped with plant based milk, makes a perfect breakfast for chocolate lovers. Top off your next ice “cream” sundae or Frosty with a sprinkle of this delightful creation.

I made a frozen treat with the birdseed. I increased the chocolate sauce to 1 1/2 times what is listed. Instead of baking it after mixing the chocolate and grains together, I pressed it flat in the bottom of a 9×13 pan. Then I froze it. Once it was frozen, I cut it into chocolate bar-sized strips and wrapped each one in parchment paper and tinfoil. Now I have frozen “chocolate bars” to eat when I’m craving a healthy dessert.
Sounds exciting! Thanks for sharing!
Store for a month??? That’s funny, Julie! Mine doesn’t last a week, regardless of how its stored. (But I haven’t tried locking it up with a padlock .) So good!
I make a cinnamon version of this bird seed. I received the recipe from Bridget on PDL. My family likes this addition to the other bird seeds.
Use the recipe above (I use the stove top version) but leave out the chocolate. Add 1 teaspoon of Cinnamon at the same time as adding the vanilla. That is it!
I absolutely LOVE this recipe. If I’m having a sweet or chocolate craving this is perfect to satisfy that.
These are a delicious snack.
Oh my freakin’ goodness!!!! I love this stuff!!!!! I’m glad I waited for the erythritol to arrive in the mail. As tempted as I am to hide this from the family, I also can’t wait to share it with them. Thanks!
Excellent recipe! worth a try.
I have worried that using silicone would put a chemical in my food. What is your opinion?
I have read many reviews about silicone and I’m left comfortable using silicone. You may also use vegetable-based parchment paper. There is a link for it under products.
Can I use a silicone pan liner instead of parchment paper? And cocoa instead of cacao?
Yes! and YES!
My BF loves the bird seed better than his usual granola! (that he sprinkles on top of the PD yogurt that i got him hooked on a while back!)
Which ones would I use to make it gluten free? THANKS!
The only grain listed that is made from wheat is kamut. Skip it and double one of the other grains to make this recipe gluten free.
Is it possible to make this recipe with stevia instead of erythritol? If so how much steviawould you use?
No it will not taste good.
Finally got to make this. So good! Thank you.
My new favorite snack! Top a bowl of ripe strawberries and it is just as good as strawberry ice cream with chocolate syrup!! YUM!!!
This is excellent! Tastes great, and you feel like a million dollars after eating it. It reminded me of chocolate granola like cereal.
This is a must try. Thank you!
These are delicious! My kid loves them as well!
Yep I can’t wait to make this again I LOVED it! Its a perfect snack to take with me while I am in school! Thanks!
This was so good! It’s very rich and chocolaty, and while it’s not something that I’d eat every day because of the sweetness, I just love having PD recipes available for all occasions! If everyone is having ice cream and toppings for a special occasion, I can make this and not feel left out. I’ll also know that my treat is so much healthier than theirs, and better tasting, too!
