Festive Chocolate Bark

My festive chocolate bark is definitely one of my most favourite edible homemade gifts to make and of course to eat.

This is so ridiculously easy to make, it's the perfect sweet treat recipe for beginners—you literally just add a few ingredients and my friends at Snacking Essentials have everything you need to make this. Plus this is is an instant Christmas present for the chocolate lovers in your life. That is if you don't eat.

This festive chocolate bark is a little on the indulgent side and THAT'S OKAY. It's Christmas time, so treat yourself. I can think of no better way than with my favourite Christmas treat. Get the kids involved too.

How do you make festive chocolate bark?

It's so simple. Basically melt a good, preferably raw or no sugar added, dark chocolate, then spread the chocolate on a baking tray, decorate with nuts, dried fruit and pretzels and then let it all come together in the fridge. When cold, break it up into pieces and gift to family, friends, take to a Christmas party or just devour yourself.
