Recipe Notes
We recommend reading the blog post to see all of the photos of each step and learning the tips and tricks to make perfect Christmas bark.
Lindt or Ghirardelli brand chocolates are recommended.
Keep a close eye on the melting chocolate, do not over melt it or you’ll have a big melted mess. Likewise, burning it will make it hard and not able to swirl.
