Description

An Easter bark recipe featuring swirls of dark and pastel-tinted white chocolate, Cadbury mini Eggs, and two kinds of sprinkles. This Easter bark is fun to make, and comes together in a matter of minutes!


Ingredients

Scale

100 grams chopped white chocolate, or callets (3 1/2 ounces)
200 grams chopped dark chocolate (7 ounces, or about 1 1/2 cups)
80 grams Cadbury mini eggs (1/2 cup)
Pastel nonpareils sprinkles
Easter sprinkles (store-bought, or homemade sprinkles)
Pink, purple, and yellow gel food coloring


Instructions

Line a quarter sheet tray with a silicone baking mat. Set aside.

Add the chopped dark chocolate to a bain marie or double boiler.

Melt over low heat, stirring gently, until completely melted.

Remove from heat and set aside. (To prevent the chocolate from cooling too quickly, sit the bowl on a folded towel rather than directly on the countertop.)

Using a rubber spatula or small stepped palette knife, spread the melted dark chocolate onto the prepared tray, forming a rectangle approximately 7 x 8 inches in size. (Do not attempt to cover the entire tray, or your chocolate will be too thin.)

Add the mini eggs, pressing them gently into the chocolate.

Allow the tray sit at room temperature until the chocolate has completely set. (Depending on the temperature in your kitchen, this may take a few hours.) I don’t recommend refrigerating the chocolate unless absolutely necessary.

Once the chocolate has set, peel the slab away from the silicone mat. Transfer to a large cutting board.
