Halloween Candy Chocolate Bark – A Simple Three-Ingredient Treat
Boo! It’s Halloween – a candy lover’s favorite time of year! Our country’s annual parent-sanctioned sugar binge is just around the corner and if you’re looking for clever ways to put your kiddo’s candy (or your own) to tasty use, this Halloween Candy Chocolate Bark is the trick. It’s a treat that meets my trifecta of recipe perfection – easy to make, requires only a handful of ingredients and decidedly delicious. It also makes an excellent gift.
I like a double decker bark – a layer of semisweet chocolate topped with a layer of white chocolate. Top that with a sprinkling of your favorite chopped candy and you’re in business! Chill, smash and serve!
I finished my bark with chopped Snickers, Milky Way and Kit Kat bars and a few candy corn to appease my 11-year-old’s affinity for the tasteless, waxy mess (You can probably guess I’m no fan of candy corn.) but you can adorn your bark with whatever you like. Consider the bark a blank, edible canvas and get busy with your Halloween Candy Chocolate Bark masterpiece!
TIPS:
Let the semisweet chocolate set completely before adding the white chocolate so you’ll end up with two distinct layers.
Chop candy roughly. If it’s too fine it will melt into the chocolate underneath.
