Ingredients

• Chocolate Base
• 300 g white chocolate, chopped or white chocolate chips
• 50 g pastel-colored candy melts (pink, yellow, blue, purple)
• Toppings
• 120 g mini Cadbury eggs, roughly chopped
• 2 tbsp pastel-colored sprinkles
• 30 g mini marshmallows (optional)

Instructions

1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth.

3. In separate small bowls, melt each color of pastel candy melts according to package instructions.

4. Pour the melted white chocolate onto the center of the lined baking sheet. Using a spatula, spread into a rough rectangle about ½ inch thick.

5. Drizzle the melted pastel candy melts over the white chocolate in random patterns. Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the colors together for a marbled effect.

6. Immediately sprinkle the chopped mini Cadbury eggs, pastel sprinkles, and mini marshmallows (if using) evenly over the chocolate while it is still wet.

7. Gently press toppings into the chocolate to help them adhere.

8. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or until fully set.

9. Break or cut the bark into pieces and serve.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

Make sure to melt the chocolate gradually in short bursts to avoid burning. When swirling the candy melts, work quickly before the chocolate starts to set. Press toppings gently but firmly to ensure they stick well. Refrigerate long enough for the bark to harden fully for clean breaking and serving.

Varianten und Anpassungen

For a richer flavor, substitute the white chocolate with dark or milk chocolate. Add chopped nuts like pistachios or almonds for extra crunch. Adjust toppings according to your preference and holiday theme.

Serviervorschläge

Serve this pastel bark as a colorful dessert centerpiece or wrap pieces individually for festive gifting. Pairs wonderfully with a glass of Moscato d'Asti for a light, sweet complement.
