Description

A festive, no-bake chocolate bark layered with dark, milk, and white chocolate, crushed peppermint, and sprinkles—perfect for gifting or holiday entertaining.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz (225 g) dark chocolate chips
  • 8 oz (225 g) milk chocolate chips
  • 8 oz (225 g) white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup (60 g) crushed peppermint candies
  • 1/4 cup (30 g) festive sprinkles (optional)
  • 1/2 cup (50 g) mini marshmallows (optional)
  • Pinch of sea salt flakes
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil or coconut oil per chocolate layer
  • 8 oz glass jars for gifting

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and ensure jars are clean and dry.
  2. Melt dark chocolate with 1 teaspoon oil in 30-second microwave intervals, stirring until smooth. Spread half onto parchment and let cool for 10 minutes.
  3. Melt milk chocolate with 1 teaspoon oil, pour over the dark chocolate layer, and spread evenly. Sprinkle with crushed peppermint and let firm up.
  4. Melt white chocolate with 1 teaspoon oil, spread over the milk chocolate layer, and top with more peppermint, sprinkles, and a pinch of sea salt.
  5. Allow bark to set completely—about 1 hour at room temperature or 20 minutes in the fridge. Break into pieces once hardened.
  6. Layer bark pieces in jars, alternating colors and textures. Add marshmallows or sprinkles between layers if desired.
  7. Seal jars tightly, decorate with ribbon or twine, and add gift tags.
