Our Autumn Bark Recipe our fall bark looks like twigs and autumn leaves all delicately set upon a canvas of decadent chocolate! Today’s fall bark would make the perfect take away gift for guests for your Thanksgiving Feast. A beautiful reminder of the good food shared and memories made.
Why we love Autumn Bark Recipe
We adore chocolate bark–this ones got all the bells and whistles with both dark and white chocolates then we add dried fruits and nuts. Then we finish it off with chocolate drizzle because who doesn’t love more chocolate?!
It’s festive, tasty, and just fun!
Holidays and our Autumn Bark Recipe
As I drive around town and see all the store fronts and city building decking the halls for the Holiday Season… my mind can’t quite wrap itself around the idea.
Thanksgiving IS here?? with Christmas and New Years right on it’s tail! ‘Thankfully’ I’ve got awesome blog friends because this year they’re so much more on top of it all than I am 🙂
We think you’ll love our Autumn Apple Strudel with Clove Chocolate Glaze Recipe too!
Ingredients for our Autumn Bark Recipe
- dark chocolate chips
- white chocolate chips
- canola oil
- snipped apricots
- dried cherries
- dried cranberries or black raisins
- golden raisins
- raw almonds
- piece parchment paper
How to make our Autumn Bark Recipe
- Lay parchment paper on flat working surface.
- In a small glass bowl add 1 C semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/2 tsp canola oil.
- Microwave 30 seconds, stir well.
- Microwave 15 seconds more, stir until smooth.
- Repeat additional 15 seconds if needed but don’t burn.
- Pour onto parchment paper and spread with an off set spatula until 1/4 inch thick and even.
- (reserve this bowl)
- Set aside to cool and set. (if you are in a hurry- you can speed the cool time in the fridge for 5-10 minutes but don’t let it go brittle)
- Once semi-sweet chocolate is set, melt white chocolate and 1/2 tsp canola oil in clean bowl but in the same manor as directed above.
- Working quickly before semi-sweet chocolate can melt- evenly pour white chocolate on semi-sweet base, quickly spread to cover semi-sweet base.
- Immediately sprinkle assorted dried fruits and almond pieces on top of white chocolate.
- Melt remaining semi-sweet chocolate in that bowl, using a fork in a back and forth motion over the top to apply stripes.
- Allow to cool to set and break into roughly 2 inch square pieces.
- Serve and Enjoy!
