This sounds strange but tastes delicious. The sea salt, olive oil and sesame really enhance the chocolate flavour.

Ingredients

small baguette 1, thinly sliced
extra-virgin olive oil  2 tbsp, plus a drizzle more
tahini 2 tsp
70% dark chocolate about 100g, snapped into chunks
sea salt 2 tsp
sesame seeds 2 tsp

Method

Step 1

Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Space the baguette slices out on baking sheets.
Step 2

Mix the olive oil with the tahini and brush over both sides of the bread. Bake for 3-5 minutes until crisp and golden, then flip and finish the other side for a couple of minutes.
Step 3

Sit squares of chocolate on the toasts and put back into the oven for a minute to melt. Sprinkle with sea salt, a few sesame seeds and a splash more olive oil to serve.
