Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 12 oz Semi-sweet chocolate chips or wafers (about 340g)
  • 2 cups Mini pretzels, crushed (about 120g)
  • 1 cup M&M's Crispy candies (about 170g)

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Microwave-safe bowl
  • Spatula

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, ensuring it covers the entire surface for easy removal.
  2. Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth, or use a double boiler method.
  3. Pour the melted chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it evenly into a thin layer using a spatula or offset spreader.
  4. Immediately sprinkle the crushed mini pretzels and M&M's Crispy candies generously over the wet chocolate layer.
  5. Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely firm and set.
  6. Once firm, break the chocolate bark into irregular pieces by hand or cut with a sharp knife.

Notes

Ensure all ingredients are ready before starting. For best results, allow the bark to fully set in the refrigerator before breaking. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or in the refrigerator for longer.
