Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Bark Base
  • 16 oz high-quality white chocolate chips or chopped bars
  • 8 oz green candy melts
  • 1 tsp lime extract divided
Toppings
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime zest patted dry
  • 1 tbsp coarse flaky sea salt like Maldon

Equipment

  • Microwave-safe bowls
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Offset spatula

Method
 

  1. Line a large 9x13 baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate in 30-second increments at 50% power, stirring until completely smooth. Stir in half of the lime extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, melt the green candy melts using the same method. Stir in the remaining lime extract.
  4. Pour the white chocolate onto the prepared pan, spreading it into an even 1/4-inch thick layer.
  5. Drop dollops of the melted green candy evenly over the wet white chocolate layer.
  6. Using a knife or toothpick, swirl the green and white chocolates together to create a marbled effect. Do not overmix.
  7. Immediately sprinkle the surface evenly with the dried fresh lime zest and coarse sea salt.
  8. Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 30-45 minutes until the chocolate is completely set and firm.
  9. Remove from fridge and peel off the parchment paper. Break into random-sized shards and serve.

Notes

Ensure all bowls and utensils are completely dry before melting chocolate, as water will cause it to seize. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
