How to make Halloween Bark:
1. Melt the chocolate
Break your chocolate into pieces and pop it into a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second bursts, stirring each time, until smooth and melted.
2. Spread it out
Line a baking tray with baking paper. Pour the melted chocolate on top and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
3. Add your spooky toppings
Now for the fun bit! Sprinkle over all your decorations – candy eyes, gummy worms, Halloween sprinkles, lollies, or whatever creepy-cute treats you have on hand.
4. Chill and set
Pop the tray into the fridge for about an hour, or until the chocolate is firm.
5. Break into pieces
Once set, break the bark into random shards. Don’t worry about neatness – the more jagged, the better.
Halloween doesn’t have to be complicated — sometimes the simplest ideas are the best (and the tastiest!). This chocolate bark is proof that with a couple of blocks of chocolate and some spooky sprinkles, you can create something that looks fun, gets the kids excited, and disappears in minutes.
