5-minute Halloween Candy Bark

Step 3: Add chunks & set

Distribute bits of candy over the melted chocolate base.  You may choose to chop up larger candies like Reese's cups, candy bars, etc so they're bite-size.  Choose a mix of candies you think will taste good, or that will taste utterly gross together - it all depends on your goals.

I was careful about color distribution, but you could skip the anal-retentive nonsense and dump your candy on there all at once.  Just be sure to press the candy in so it sticks to the chocolate.

If it's a warm day, put the chocolate in the fridge to set; on a cool day, it should set up quickly right there on your counter top.

Optional bonus step:
Drizzle the top with a contrasting color of chocolate.  I used dark chocolate (leftover from the vegan experiment), but you could also tint some more white chocolate in another disgusting color.  I'm thinking purple could have gone over well here.

You could use this as a practical joke too, just lay it out on the floor and yell "I think the dog's been sick!" :D

But seriously, this looks really good! I'm going to have to try it after Halloween with all the leftover candy I end up with! Thanks!

Choose your colors according to your dog's tastes. ;)

Post pictures when you make it! Leftover or discounted Halloween candy is perfect.

I don't think I could pay anyone enough money to eat it if I went by my dog's taste (sticks, plastic, old socks, my underwear!) XD I'll get back with a picture in a couple weeks! Thanks again!

An easy way to break candy bars into pieces is to freeze them and smack them against a hard surface. You don't even need to unwrap them first.

Nice tip! I presume this works best with big candy bars? Could be a bit dicey with those minis.
