Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces (340 grams) white chocolate chips or melting wafers
- 1 ½ cups (about 225 grams) candy corn
- ¼ cup crushed pretzels (optional)
- ¼ cup chopped peanuts (optional)
- Flaky sea salt (optional)
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil or vegetable shortening (optional)
Instructions
- Line a standard baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, letting the paper extend slightly over the edges for easy removal.
- Place 12 ounces of white chocolate chips or melting wafers in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals at 50% power, stirring thoroughly after each interval, until mostly melted. Stir until completely smooth. If using, stir in 1 teaspoon of coconut oil for extra shine.
- Pour the melted white chocolate onto the center of the prepared baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread it into an even layer about ¼-inch thick.
- While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle 1 ½ cups of candy corn evenly over the surface. Press each piece gently into the chocolate. Add any optional toppings (pretzels, peanuts, sea salt) now.
- Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until the chocolate is completely firm and set.
- Once firm, lift the parchment paper to remove the bark from the baking sheet. Place on a cutting board and break into irregular pieces with your hands.
- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
Notes
For best results, use high-quality white chocolate that contains cocoa butter. Avoid overheating the chocolate; microwave at 50% power in short intervals. If the chocolate seizes, stir in a teaspoon of coconut oil. The bark tastes even better after a day or two as flavors meld.
