Candy, Pretzel Peanut Bark

By Floridaberry

only takes around 15 minutes to make and 45 minutes to cool

Ingredients

• 18 (1-ounce) squares white chocolate
• 3 cups skinny pretzel stick, broken into small pieces but not crushed, then measured
• 2 cups dry salted peanuts

Preparation

Step 1

Line a rimmed cookie sheet with parchment or waxed paper.

Melt the chocolate in a double boiler over simmering water until smooth, or melt in the microwave in a 2 quart glass dish. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, and microwave on high for 1 minute more. If necessary, microwave on high for 10 seconds more, and stir until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Stir in the pretzel pieces and dpeanuts. Stir well with a flexible spatula.

Spoon onto the prepared cookie sheet, spreading the mixture out so that ingredients are relatively evenly distributed. Allow for the chocolate to cool for several hours or refrigerate for about 45 minutes, until firm. Break the bark into irregular pieces, like peanut brittle. Store in cookie tins, or package in Chinese food take-out cartens lined with waxed paper.
