Ingredients

• Chocolate Base
  • 300 g white chocolate, chopped or white chocolate chips
  • 50 g pastel-colored candy melts (pink, yellow, blue, purple)
• Toppings
  • 120 g mini Cadbury eggs, roughly chopped
  • 2 tbsp pastel-colored sprinkles
  • 30 g mini marshmallows (optional)

Instructions

1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth.

3. In separate small bowls, melt each color of pastel candy melts according to package instructions.

4. Pour the melted white chocolate onto the center of the lined baking sheet. Using a spatula, spread into a rough rectangle about ½ inch thick.

5. Drizzle the melted pastel candy melts over the white chocolate in random patterns. Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the colors together for a marbled effect.

6. Immediately sprinkle the chopped mini Cadbury eggs, pastel sprinkles, and mini marshmallows (if using) evenly over the chocolate while it is still wet.

7. Gently press toppings into the chocolate to help them adhere.

8. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or until fully set.

9. Break or cut the bark into pieces and serve.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

For best results, melt the white chocolate and candy melts gently to avoid scorching. Use a toothpick to create your marbled design carefully so the colors swirl without mixing too much. Press the toppings lightly but firmly into the warm chocolate to ensure they stick well once chilled.

Varianten und Anpassungen

Try substituting dark or milk chocolate instead of white chocolate for a richer flavor profile. Add chopped nuts like pistachios or almonds for extra crunch and texture. You can also experiment with different sprinkles or omit marshmallows if you prefer.

Serviervorschläge
