Scale
Main Ingredients
- 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 4 oz white chocolate or white candy melts
- Halloween sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare the Base Chocolate: Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl using 30-second intervals, stirring between each until fully melted and smooth.
- Spread the Chocolate: Pour the melted semi-sweet chocolate onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Leave about a teaspoon of chocolate aside. Use a spatula to spread the chocolate evenly to your desired thickness.
- Melt the White Chocolate: Melt the white chocolate or white candy melts in the same manner as the semi-sweet chocolate until smooth and creamy.
- Create Ghost Shapes: Add dollops of white chocolate onto the dark chocolate surface. Using a toothpick or the tip of a sharp knife, drag the white chocolate downward to form the ghost tails.
- Add Facial Features: Dip a toothpick into the leftover semi-sweet chocolate and use it to carefully add eyes and mouths to the ghost shapes, repeating until you are happy with the design.
- Sprinkle and Chill: Sprinkle Halloween sprinkles over the bark to add festive decoration. Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and chill for one hour or until the bark has completely solidified.
- Slice and Serve: Once solid, slice the bark into pieces and enjoy your spooky Halloween treat!
Notes
- If you don’t have candy melts, substitute with high-quality white chocolate bars chopped finely.
- Be careful not to overheat the chocolate in the microwave; stirring frequently helps prevent burning.
- You can customize sprinkles to various Halloween themes like pumpkins, bats, or ghosts for extra fun.
- Use a silicone spatula to spread chocolate evenly without scratching your baking sheet.
- Store leftover bark in an airtight container at room temperature if consumed within a few days or refrigerate for longer storage.
