A nice kitchen gift: Hot Chocolate Bark

Photo by Susie QT pies Scraps of Life
I found and saved this recipe last year but never got around to trying it: Hot Chocolate Bark.  Yesterday I needed to think about making a quick dessert to take for today's potluck at church.  I went looking in my "assorted recipes" folder and there it was.  We have pounds of bark on hand which Mr. T bought on a 75% off sale after Christmas last year.  Not sure why they regard this as a Christmas clearance item when they sell it in the baking aisle year round, but who am I to quibble about their reasoning when it gets me 75% off?

I omitted the graham crackers.  I think they would be simply delicious in the bark, but am avoiding wheat so I decided to skip the ingredient.  I used mini marshmallows instead.  The bark received lots of nice compliments from those who tried it.  It would make a very nice gift indeed.  And it's so easy!  Enjoy!

  2. Glad you like the background! I see so many pretty ones on others' Christmas blogs, and often wish mine was prettier. But I just love this one, really, and probably won't change it as it just suits my style.

    I will check out your party. Sounds like fun!

    And thanks for stopping by my Christmas kitchen!
