Equipment

9x13 baking pan

Ingredients

2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chopped
2 cups white chocolate chopped
½ cup red candy melts
½ cup white candy melts
½ cup blue candy melts
2 tablespoons red white and blue sprinkles
¼ cup red white and blue M&Ms

Instructions

Line your baking tray with parchment paper, with enough overhang to lift the candy bark out of the tray once firmed up.
Chocolate layer: Place the chopped semi-sweet chocolate in a microwave proof bowl and heat in 30 second increments, stirring after each time until just melted. Pour into the prepared tray and use a spatula to spread into an even layer.
Place the tray in the fridge for around 30 minutes for the chocolate to harden.
White chocolate layer: Place the chopped white chocolate in a microwave proof bowl and heat in 30 second increments, stirring after each time until just melted. Pour into the tray over the hardened chocolate and use a spatula to spread into an even layer.
Place the tray in the fridge again to harden completely - around 30 minutes.
Drizzle the colored melts: Melt the red, white and blue candy melts in separate bowls. Use a spoon to drizzle first the red, then the white, and finally the blue melted candy over the hardened chocolate base.
Decorate: While the colored chocolate is still soft, drag a toothpick or sharp knife through the top to create a marbled effect. Sprinkle your red white and blue sprinkles and candy over the top. Press the candy gently into the chocolate so it will stay put once the chocolate hardens.
Place the tray back in the fridge to harden completely. Once fully set, gently lift the bark out of the tray using the parchment paper overhang, and place on a chopping board. Chop or break the candy bark into pieces. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Chocolate: Use good quality semi-sweet and white chocolate for the best tasting candy bark. You can use chocolate chips or chocolate bars, chopped.

Decorations: Any patriotic sprinkles for cake decorating work. I used star sprinkles and red white and blue M&Ms for this recipe.

Leftovers: As this is a no bake chocolate treat, leftovers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, or in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
