Ingredients
Scale
- 12 oz (340g) white chocolate chips
- 1 cup (about 200g) candy corn
- 1 cup (about 100g) salted pretzels, roughly crushed
- 1 teaspoon (5ml) coconut oil
- Optional: flaky sea salt for topping
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Crush pretzels in a Ziploc bag with a rolling pin into bite-sized pieces.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and glossy (about 1.5 minutes).
- Pour melted chocolate onto prepared baking sheet and spread into a 1/4-inch thick rectangle.
- While chocolate is still wet, sprinkle crushed pretzels and candy corn evenly on top. Gently press them into the chocolate. Add flaky sea salt if desired.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or freeze for 15-20 minutes) until completely firm.
- Lift bark from parchment, place on a cutting board, and break into rustic pieces with your hands.
Notes
Work quickly when adding toppings as chocolate sets fast. For best texture, let bark sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Do not freeze.
