Bark is one of my favorite holiday treats to make. Why? Because it is so darn simple. And people LOVE it. It is basically melted chocolate with some other deliciousness thrown in. Candy, pretzels, nuts.. whatever makes you happy. I wanted to make some bark to supplement my cookies this year and found this fantastic recipe from Baked Bree. Bree included some Rice Krispies cereal in between the layers to add a little bit of extra crunch to the bark, brilliant! The red and green M&Ms and candy canes make this the perfect holiday treat.
Ingredients (adapted from BakedBree.com)
- 16 oz package dark chocolate chips
- 16 oz package white chocolate chips
- 1 cup Rice Krispies
- 4 candy canes
- 1 bag red and green M&Ms
Note: this will make one cookie sheet worth of bark. I suggest making 2-3 sheets so you have plenty to share!
