Recipe Of The Week 12/22: Chocolate Snowman Bark

Dec 22, 2024

Chocolate Snowman Bark

Yields: 9 servings

Ingredients:

  • 9 ounces sugar free chocolate chips, I used Lily’s
  • 27 mini marshmallows
  • 1 teaspoon White Nonpareils Sprinkles
  • Pretzel sticks cut into 1/2 inch pieces, for the arms (about 1 oz total)
  • Edible ink markers, orange and black

Directions:

  • Line a small 9 x 13-inch sheet pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Using the edible markers, make a snowman face on 9 small marshmallows. Plan where you will be placing the snowman so they will be easy to cut equally later.
  • Have your pretzels cut and ready because once the chocolate hardens they won’t stick.
  • Pour the chocolate into a medium microwave-safe bowl. Melt the chocolate in the microwave, stirring the chocolate every 30 seconds to help avoid seizing.
  • Once melted and smooth, set aside. This took me about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, but will vary with every microwave. When you’re ready, pour chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading with a rubber spatula into a smooth layer almost to the edge.
  • Quickly add the marshmallows to create your snowmen, then add the pretzel arms and lastly add the sprinkles, for snow.
  • Allow the bark to set completely in the refrigerator, about 30 minutes. Once hardened, break into 9 pieces about 1 ounce each.
