Pretzel Chocolate Bark
When it comes to Father’s Day, I always loved getting the kids involved in making something special and this Pretzel Chocolate Bark was always a hit.
The combination of sweet milk chocolate, crunchy pretzels, colourful M&Ms and fluffy marshmallows makes it fun to create and even more fun to eat.
It’s quick, no-bake and the perfect homemade gift for Dad, Grandad or the special father figure in your life. Wrap it up with a ribbon, and you’ve got a thoughtful (and delicious) treat made with love.
Pretzel Chocolate Bark
This Pretzel Chocolate Bark is the perfect mix of sweet and salty! A quick, 5-ingredient no-bake treat with pretzels, M&Ms and marshmallows. Ideal for Father’s Day gifts, Christmas treats or party snacks.
Ingredients
- 150g milk chocolate melts
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional)
- ¼ cup mini pretzels, broken into smaller pieces
- ¼ cup M&Ms (red and green for Christmas, pastel for Easter, or classic colours)
- ¼ cup mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Line a baking tray with baking paper and set aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate and coconut oil together on medium power for 60 seconds. Stir, then continue heating in 30-second bursts until smooth. (Alternatively, melt using the double boiler method on the stovetop.)
- Pour the melted chocolate onto the prepared tray and spread evenly with a spatula.
- Quickly sprinkle over pretzels, M&Ms and mini marshmallows, pressing them lightly into the chocolate so they stick.
- Place the tray in the fridge or freezer until completely set (about 30 minutes).
- Once firm, break into pieces. Store in an airtight container in the fridge or package in cellophane bags with ribbon for gifting.
Notes
Top Tips
- Toppings: Swap M&Ms for Smarties, jelly lollies, popcorn or chopped nuts.
- Mix it up: Try dark or white chocolate or even a combination of 2, instead of milk chocolate.
- Festive touch: Decorate with red/green M&Ms for Christmas, heart-shaped lollies for Valentine’s Day or pastel ones at Easter.
- Make-ahead: Bark can be made up to a week in advance and stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
