Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz (225 g) dark chocolate (at least 60% cocoa)
- 4 oz (115 g) white chocolate
- 1 tbsp (15 g) butter (optional)
- Sea salt flakes (a pinch)
- Optional toppings: Halloween-themed sprinkles, chopped nuts, edible glitter
Instructions
- Prepare your workspace by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- Melt the dark chocolate using a double boiler or microwave until smooth, stirring frequently. Add butter if using.
- Pour and spread the melted dark chocolate evenly on the prepared sheet to about 1/4 inch (6 mm) thickness.
- Melt the white chocolate separately until smooth and creamy.
- Drop small dollops or thin lines of white chocolate across the dark chocolate surface. Use a toothpick or skewer to drag lines from the center outward to create a spider web pattern.
- Place the baking sheet in the fridge to let the bark harden completely, about 30-40 minutes.
- Remove the bark from the tray and break into irregular pieces. Sprinkle with sea salt flakes or optional toppings.
Notes
Melt chocolate in short bursts and stir often to avoid graininess. Work quickly when creating the spider web design before the chocolate sets. Store bark in an airtight container at room temperature or refrigerate if warm. Freezes well for longer storage.
