1/2 cup of white chocolate chips
Instructions:
1. Begin by melting the dark chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave. If using the microwave, make sure to melt the chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, to prevent burning.

6. Use a toothpick or knife to create swirls with the white chocolate, giving the bark a marbled effect.

8. Once the bark is set, break it into pieces and serve.
