Ingredients

  • 2 12- oz bags semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup each red and green candy melts
  • ½ cup Andes creme de menthe baking chips
  • ¾ cup seasonal M&Ms

Instructions

  • Prep: Start by lining two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper, set aside.
  • Melt chocolates: Then, in a microwave safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in the microwave for about 1 minute, or until they are almost melted. Remove them from the microwave and stir until the mixture is completely smooth.
  • Next, place the red and green candy melts in separate bowls and microwave them for about 15 seconds at a time, stirring in between each interval until they are completely smooth and melted.
  • Assemble: Now, divide the melted chocolate chips between the two pans and spread the chocolate into a rectangle on each pan. After that, swirl the red and green melted candy on top of the melted chocolate chip layer. I only showed pics of one pan, but make sure you make2 pans or your bark will be way too thick. I used a knife to swirl the red and green candy melts to make a marbled effect, just make sure you do this quickly because the candy will start to harden fairly fast.
  • While the bark is still wet, proceed to sprinkle the top with the Andes baking chips and M&Ms. Press the candies gently into the chocolate and then place the pans in the refrigerator for about20 minutes to set.
  • When the chocolate has completely cooled, cut or break the candy into pieces. Serve and enjoy!
