Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups of milk chocolate chips
  • 12 mini pretzels
  • A dozen red M&M candies
  • Candy eyes
  • 2 tablespoons of green M&M’s
  • 1 teaspoon of sprinkles, optional

Method
 

  1. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the chocolate in the microwave in 20- to 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  3. Pour the melted chocolate onto the lined tray and spread it into an even layer.
  4. Press mini pretzels on top of the warm chocolate.
  5. Add candies, sprinkles, or any festive toppings you like.
  6. Chill in the fridge for 20-30 minutes, or until fully set.
  7. Break the bark into pieces and serve.

Notes

  • Ensure the chocolate is fully melted and silky before spreading, so it sets evenly.
  • You can swap in other toppings, such as crushed candy canes, chopped nuts, or dried fruit, for variety.
  • Store the bark in an airtight container at room temperature (or in the fridge) to keep it fresh longer.
