Ingredients
Scale
- 20 oz chocolate almond bark, chopped
- 25 caramel squares (about 1¼ cups caramel bits)
- 1–2 tbsp water or heavy cream
- Whole pecans, as many as desired
Instructions
- Prepare the sheet. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat, parchment paper, or wax paper.
- Chop and melt the chocolate. Rough chop the almond bark and microwave at 50% power for 3 minutes, stir, then microwave an additional 1-2 minutes until fully melted.
- Melt the caramel. Melt the caramel squares with 1-2 tablespoons of water or heavy cream using the same microwave method.
- Reserve chocolate for drizzling. Set aside 1/4 cup of melted chocolate and pour the remaining melted chocolate onto the lined baking sheet.
- Add caramel and swirl. Dollop the melted caramel onto the chocolate and gently swirl to create a marbled pattern.
- Top with pecans and drizzle. Sprinkle whole pecans over the top and drizzle the reserved melted chocolate.
- Let the bark set. Allow the bark to harden for 2-3 hours at room temperature.
Notes
Store the bark in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
