Ingredients
Chocolate
- 10 ounces chocolate chips, any kind you like
Mix-In
- 1 1/2 cups chopped pretzels
Optional
- Coarse sea salt, for sprinkling
Instructions
- Melt the chocolate: Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat for 30 seconds at a time, stirring between intervals until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Alternatively, melt the chocolate using a double boiler by filling a medium pot halfway with boiling water, setting a heatproof glass bowl on top, adding the chocolate chips, and stirring until fully melted.
- Combine with pretzels: Add the chopped pretzels to the melted chocolate, stirring thoroughly until all pretzel pieces are completely coated in chocolate.
- Spread and chill: Pour the chocolate and pretzel mixture onto a medium-sized baking sheet lined with a non-stick mat or parchment paper. Use a spatula to spread it evenly. If desired, sprinkle coarse sea salt evenly over the top. Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and chill for 30 minutes to 1 hour, or until the chocolate has fully hardened.
- Break and serve: Once hardened, break the bark into pieces of your desired size and serve immediately or store in an airtight container until ready to enjoy.
Notes
- You can use any type of chocolate chips such as milk, dark, or white chocolate depending on your preference.
- Chopped pretzels provide a nice crunch, but whole pretzels or pretzel sticks can also be used.
- Coarse sea salt is optional but enhances the sweet and salty flavor contrast.
- Store the bark in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness and prevent melting.
- This recipe is perfect for quick gifting during holidays or as a last-minute party treat.
