Units
Scale
- 12 oz (340 g) white chocolate or candy melts
- 6 oz (170 g) green candy melts (or white chocolate + green food coloring)
- 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting)
- 1/4 cup Lucky Charms marshmallows (or rainbow sprinkles) 🌈
- 2 tablespoons gold or green sprinkles ✨
- 1/4 cup green M&M’s or other festive candies
Instructions
1. Melt the Chocolate
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl:
- Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
- If using, mix in ½ teaspoon coconut oil for a smoother texture.
- Repeat the same process for the green candy melts.
2. Create the Bark
- Pour the melted white chocolate onto the parchment paper and spread evenly (about ¼ inch thick).
- Drizzle the melted green chocolate over the white chocolate and use a toothpick or skewer to swirl the colors together.
3. Add the Magic!
- Sprinkle Lucky Charms marshmallows, M&M’s, and gold sprinkles over the chocolate while still melted.
- Lightly press the toppings so they stick as the chocolate sets.
4. Chill & Break
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until fully hardened.
- Once set, break into irregular pieces and serve!
