How To Make Easter Bark

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper (or wax paper).

Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in your saucepan, about 4-6 minutes on low heat or melt in your microwave in 30-second intervals in a heatproof bowl. You could also melt in a double boiler.

Spread the melted chocolate out on your parchment lined baking sheet into a thin layer using an offset spatula (or use a butter knife), then set the cookie sheet in the fridge for about 45 minutes to harden.

Recipe Variations

  • Add sprinkles – You can also add some fun pastel sprinkles for a pop of color!
  • Add mini marshmallows for extra sweetness.
  • Try add jelly beans for a little color and chewiness.
  • If you want brighter colors, melt the white chocolate in three separate microwave-safe bowls and add the dye to the bowls then pour the melted chocolate onto the candy bark.
  • Add pretzels for a salty and sweet crunch. 

Storage Instructions

Store in the fridge in airtight container for up to 1 week.  It can most likely last longer, up to 2 weeks. If you add toppings that can get soft, such as pretzels then I would consume the bark within a week.​

You can also freeze this chocolate bark for up to 3 months.

Recipe FAQs

Can I keep this white chocolate easter bark at room temperature? 

I prefer to keep the bark in the refrigerator so I don’t end up with melted chocolate or melted candy!

Do I need to add the food dye? 

No. This is totally optional and can be left out.

How can I swirl the two chocolates together? 

If you prefer to swirl the dark and white chocolate melt the chocolates at the same time. Pour the dark chocolate on then white chocolate on and use a toothpick to swirl.
