Gather Your Ingredients
What You'll Need:
Dark, milk, or white chocolate - You can use any type of chocolate you prefer, or even a combination of all three for a colorful and flavorful bark.
Assorted toppings - Get creative with your toppings! Some classic options include candy canes, dried fruits, nuts, pretzels, and crushed cookies. You can also use Christmas-themed sprinkles to add a pop of color.
Parchment paper - This will help prevent the bark from sticking to your baking sheet.
Double boiler - This is the best way to melt your chocolate without burning it. If you don't have a double boiler, you can create one by placing a heat-proof bowl over a pot of simmering water.
Spatula - You'll need this to mix and spread the chocolate.
Melt the Chocolate
Step 1: Prep Your Workstation
Before you start melting your chocolate, make sure you have all your toppings ready to go. This process moves quickly, so it's important to have everything ready beforehand.
Step 2: Melt the Chocolate
Using a double boiler, melt your chosen chocolate until it's smooth and silky. Stir constantly to prevent it from burning.
Step 3: Spread the Chocolate
Once your chocolate is melted, pour it onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and use a spatula to spread it out evenly.
Add Your Toppings
Step 4: Sprinkle Away
Now comes the fun part! Sprinkle your chosen toppings over the melted chocolate, making sure to press them in gently so they stick.
Step 5: Chill and Break
Place your bark in the fridge for about an hour, or until it's completely hardened. Once it's ready, remove it from the fridge and break it into irregular pieces.
Enjoy Your Festive Treat
Your Christmas bark is now ready to be enjoyed! You can serve it as a dessert, give it as a gift, or even use it as a topping for ice cream or hot chocolate. Get creative and have fun with this Christmas twist on a classic treat. Happy holidays!
