Equipment
Ingredients
- 20 oz Ghirardelli premium white chocolate bars broken into smaller pieces, 5 4-oz bars
- ½ cup mini Cadbury eggs roughly chopped
- ½ cup tiny pretzel twists broken into smaller pieces
- Assorted sprinkles
- Gel food coloring: blue, purple, yellow
Instructions
- Line a quarter sheet pan or similar sheet pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Place the broken up white chocolate bar in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt in 30-second increments, stirring in-between, at about 50% power, until melted. Do not overheat the chocolate as it will thicken and seize.
- Divide the mixture by placing 3 ounces each into 3 separate bowls. Place a few drops of food coloring, a different color into each bowl, and stir well. Use separate spoons for each color.
- Pour the remaining 11 ounces of plain melted white chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread it out evenly. not too thin as you want the bark to have some bulk.
- Working quickly, drop small spoonfuls of each of the colors on top of the melted white chocolate. As an option, you can also drizzle it on top in alternating colors. Using a sharp knife or toothpick, make swirls of the colors throughout the white chocolate. (No need to be perfect, as it will be covered with mini eggs, pretzels, and sprinkles.)
- Decorate the top of the bark with chopped mini eggs, pretzel pieces, and sprinkles.
- Place the bark in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes or until set completely.
- Break the bar apart into pieces with your hands or with a knife. Store on the counter in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks, in the refrigerator for up to 1 month, or freeze for up to 2 months.
Notes
Make sure not to spread the white chocolate onto the parchment paper too thin. You want it to be slightly thick so that it can hold the mini Cadbury eggs and pretzels in place when it hardens.
Use any color food coloring you like although gel or oil are the best option. You only need 1-2 drops, a little goes a long way.
Use a high-quality premium baking white chocolate that melts easily and tastes good. I do not recommend using candy melts for these.
