Happy Halloween!

What better way to celebrate Halloween than to attempt to get all of your favorite Halloween candy in one bite? I couldn't think of one, so I made Halloween Candy Bark!


You can totally mix it up with any candy that you want - I used Reese's Pieces and Reese's Peanut butter cups, Butterfingers, Heath Bars, and Honey Roasted Peanuts - yum!

All you do is melt some bittersweet chocolate (I actually did a mixture of semisweet and bittersweet because that was the chips I had) and spread it in a foil-lined baking sheet to about 1/4 of an inch. While it is still warm, add all the chopped Halloween candy you want! I froze mine before chopping so they stay together easier. To finish, melt some white chocolate* and drizzle over top. Put in the fridge for about 30 minutes to an hour until chilled, then break into pieces and eat!

Be forewarned - this stuff is addicting!


*for readers that will remain un-named & used up 3 bags of chips, here is how to melt white chocolate: Don't put it directly over the heat if doing it on the stovetop - use a double boiler or boil water in a pot and then put your bowl with the chocolate overtop. OR put the chocolate in a microwave and microwave for one minute, stir, then in 15 minute intervals until melted. If you need to drizzle or make it thinner, you can add some shortening, vege oil, or butter.
