Chocolate Base
- 2 cups milk or semi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks
- 1 tablespoon butter or coconut oil (optional)
S’mores Toppings
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup graham crackers, crushed into small pieces
- Pinch of sea salt (optional)
- Prepare Your Workspace: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to ensure easy removal of the bark later on and to simplify cleanup.
- Melt the Chocolate: Gently melt the chocolate using a double boiler or microwave in short bursts, stirring frequently until smooth and glossy. If desired, add a small amount of butter or coconut oil to improve texture and silkiness.
- Spread the Chocolate: Pour and spread the melted chocolate evenly across the prepared baking sheet, aiming for about a quarter-inch thickness to achieve the perfect crunch and bite.
- Add the S’mores Mix-ins: Sprinkle mini marshmallows and crushed graham crackers generously over the melted chocolate. Lightly press them into the chocolate to keep them secured as the bark sets.
- Toast the Marshmallows: To get authentic roasted marshmallow flavor, place the tray under a broiler for a minute or two, watching carefully to avoid burning. Alternatively, toast marshmallows beforehand and then add them.
- Chill and Set: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, or until the bark is firm and completely set.
- Break and Enjoy: Once hardened, break the bark into rustic pieces and enjoy immediately or store for later snacking.
Notes
- Use high-quality chocolate for better taste and smoother melting.
- Do not skip chilling to ensure firm bark that’s easy to break and less messy to eat.
- Spread chocolate evenly for consistent thickness and perfect crunch.
- Watch the broiler carefully to toast marshmallows quickly and prevent burning.
- Store bark in an airtight container to keep it fresh and prevent moisture buildup.
