Prep Time 10 minutes mins

Cooling 15 minutes mins
Total Time 30 minutes mins
- 12 oz 340 g semi-sweet or dark chocolate (chopped or chips)
- 12 oz 340 g white chocolate (chopped or chips)
- 1 cup 160 g candy corn
- ½ cup 50 g pretzels, broken into small pieces
- ½ cup 60 g roasted salted peanuts (or almonds, optional)
Line your tray: Prepare a rimmed baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Melt the chocolate base: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate in 20–30 second bursts, stirring after each, until smooth. You can also melt it over a double boiler if you prefer.
Spread the base layer
Pour the melted chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread it into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick. Let it set for 5 minutes at room temp or 2 minutes in the fridge.
Melt the white chocolate: Use the same melting method for the white chocolate until smooth and pourable.
Add the toppings: Pour the white chocolate over the semi-sweet base and spread gently. Quickly sprinkle the candy corn, pretzel pieces, and peanuts over the top. Press them in lightly so they stick.
Let it set: Allow the bark to cool and harden completely at room temperature or refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
Break into pieces: Once firm, lift the bark off the tray and break into rustic shards. Serve and enjoy!
