Spring Candy Chocolate Bark

Spring Candy Chocolate Bark ~ skip the pre-fab candy this Easter and make your own!  Creamy white chocolate is studded with your favorite holiday treats, and takes only minutes to make!

I was so enchanted when I saw versions of this Easter bark candy around the blogosphere this week that I had to try my hand at it.  This is the idea…steal a few of the candies earmarked for your kids’ Easter baskets and embed them in a thick layer of molten white chocolate.  When it firms up you can shatter it into shards of white chocolate and Easter candy bliss.  Snack on some with coffee while the kiddos scramble for the eggs.  No kids?  Now you have an excuse to pick up some spring candy —  you know you want to  — buy a few of your favorites and go to town.

I don’t usually call out specific brands in my recipes, but in this case I have a clear preference for Nestle white chocolate chips.  I prefer the texture and color, and they melt very easily.  I’ve tried all kinds of white chocolate, including the luxury brands, and for this purpose I think Nestle is best.  All you’ll need is one bag of white chips.  And some pilfered Easter candy.

I recommend the sprinkles, they add a festive touch.  I even have a recipe for HOMEMADE SPRINKLES.  And if you want to try another colorful homemade bark, check out my MARBLEIZED CHOCOLATE BARK.

Notes:

• If you have trouble melting white chocolate, you can use white confectionery instead.  If comes in bricks, and in wafers and it’s made to melt easily for candy making.  You can find it HERE.
