Ingredients
Chocolate Base
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Swirl Mixture
- 3/4 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup pink candy melts
Topping
- Valentine’s sprinkles (amount as desired)
Instructions
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure the chocolate bark does not stick and can be easily removed once set.
- Melt Semi-Sweet Chocolate: Place semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe container and melt in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully smooth and melted.
- Spread Semi-Sweet Chocolate: Pour the melted semi-sweet chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet and spread evenly with a spatula to form a smooth layer.
- Melt White Chocolate and Pink Candy Melts: In another microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips and pink candy melts together using the same 20-second burst method, stirring until smooth.
- Spread Swirl Mixture: Pour this melted white chocolate and pink candy blend over the semi-sweet chocolate layer and spread evenly with a spatula.
- Swirl the Chocolates: Using a butter knife, gently swirl the two chocolate layers to create a marbled effect without fully mixing them.
- Add Sprinkles: Sprinkle Valentine’s Day-themed sprinkles generously over the top of the chocolate mixture.
- Chill to Set: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and allow the chocolate bark to chill for about 45 minutes or until completely set and firm.
- Break and Serve: Once set, break the chocolate bark into chunks of your preferred size and enjoy this festive, delicious treat!
