Ingredients
For the Bark
- 12 ounces white chocolate or white chocolate chips
- 6 ounces milk or dark chocolate (optional for layering or drizzling)
- 1 cup jelly beans, assorted colors and flavors
- 1 teaspoon neutral oil (such as coconut or vegetable oil, optional for smoother melting)
Optional Toppings
- Sprinkles or edible glitter
- Colored sugar
- Crushed candy
- Shredded coconut
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare your pan
-
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat
-
Set aside for assembly after melting the chocolate
Step 2: Melt the chocolate
-
Place white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl
-
Microwave in 20–30 second intervals, stirring between each until smooth and fully melted
-
If using, melt milk or dark chocolate separately using the same method
-
Stir in a teaspoon of oil if needed for smoother texture
Step 3: Spread the chocolate
-
Pour the melted white chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet
-
Use a spatula to spread it into an even layer, about ¼-inch thick
-
If using a second chocolate, drizzle or swirl it into the base for a marbled effect
Step 4: Add the jelly beans
-
While the chocolate is still warm, sprinkle jelly beans evenly over the surface
-
Press them gently into the chocolate so they adhere as it sets
Step 5: Add extra toppings (optional)
-
Sprinkle any additional decorations like sprinkles, coconut, or edible glitter over the top
-
Customize the design based on your event or color theme
Step 6: Chill and set
-
Transfer the pan to the refrigerator for 30 minutes or until chocolate is firm
-
Ensure the bark is fully set before breaking it into pieces
Step 7: Break and serve
-
Once firm, remove from the pan and peel off the parchment
-
Break into pieces by hand or use a sharp knife for clean cuts
-
Store in an airtight container at room temperature or refrigerate if needed
