Chocolate Bark

One of the quickest and easiest recipes I have. The fact that it tastes amazing is a bonus.

Chocolate Bark

INGREDIENTS

Eight squares semi-sweet chocolate (Can use bittersweet if you prefer)

Six squares white chocolate

1 cup whole, toasted almonds

1 cup dried cranberries (Optional. We don’t do fruit in our chocolate, so we leave it out.)

DIRECTIONS

Place semi-sweet chocolate squares in a small bowl and microwave for two minutes on MEDIUM power.

Remove from microwave and stir until chocolate is completely melted and smooth.

Repeat with the white chocolate.

Stir 1/2 cup of almonds into each of the bowls and stir to cover.

Drop spoonfuls of chocolate onto wax paper on a cookie sheet, alternating white and dark chocolate.

Use the end of a knife to swirl the chocolates and make the marble effect.

Chill until firm, then break into about twenty pieces.

Enjoy!

    Sounds fantastic! Do you think one could substitute something else if one did not like white chocolate? That one being me. Ahem.

    And if you like peppermint bark, sprinkle the whole thing with crushed candy canes while it’s still melty. 🙂

    Oooh, this looks yummy! I might make some for Christmas gifts, to go with my usual shortbread & cookies.
    Does it need to be kept in the fridge??
