At Sweet C’s, I add lots of tips in all of my recipes – because I am a home cook without any formal training, and I find I am more confident making dishes when I understand why it works, and what each ingredient means to the flavor of a recipe – my goal is for even the most beginner home cook to feel empowered in the kitchen.

I want each reader to walk away with a solid knowledge of each recipe, with all of the tips I’ve gathered from extensive testing of each recipe. I also answer questions my friends and family have asked about my recipes, to help everyone better understand the processes we use – and why!

How To Make Easter Bark 

Easter Bark is made with only 3-ingredients, so you wonโ€™t need to make a whole shopping list to make these delicious treats. Hereโ€™s what youโ€™ll need:

  • Semi-sweet chocolate– I use a chocolate baking bar and chop it into small pieces. You can use any melting chocolate you prefer. 
  • White baking chocolate– Again, I use white chocolate baking bar and chop it into pieces, but you can use any melting white chocolate you prefer. 
  • Cadbury eggs– Use more or less cadbury eggs depending on your preference. Be sure to chop them up as well. 

Once you have all your ingredients, this recipe comes together in less than an hour. Follow the steps below for a perfect Easter Day treat!

  1. First, line a 7โ€ by 10โ€  baking sheet with parchment paper. 
  2. Then, chop your semi-sweet chocolate and place it in a microwave safe bowl. 
  3. Microwave the chocolate in 30-second intervals, mixing in between. Repeat until the chocolate is fully melted. 
  4. Once the semi-sweet chocolate is melted, pour it onto the lined baking sheet and spread it out as evenly as you can. 
  5. Next, place your white chocolate in a microwave safe bowl and melt it the same way you did the semi-sweet chocolate. 

PRO TIP: Allow it to cool in the fridge for about 5-10 minutes, before starting with the white chocolate if you do not want the chocolate colors to blend.

  1. Pour the melted white chocolate on top of the semi-sweet chocolate and spread it out evenly to cover your first layer. 
  2. Immediately add the cadbury eggs or any other toppings you prefer. Gently press them down into the melted chocolate. 
  3. Chill the entire baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 25-minutes. 
  4. Once the chocolate has set, place it on a cutting board and chop it into your desired sizes and shapes. 
  5. Serve and enjoy!

Tips and Tricks to Perfect Easter Bark and FAQs: 

  • Use a decent quality white chocolate bar instead of white chocolate chips. The bars melt more easily, but chocolate chips can be used in a pinch.
  • Add chopped dried fruit, nuts, or pretzels to add a variety of textures and flavors. 
  • use an offset spatula to easily spread out the melted chocolate onto the parchment lined baking sheet.
  • Allow the semi-sweet chocolate to cool in the fridge for about 5-10 minutes, before starting with the white chocolate if you do not want the chocolate colors to blend.
  • The melted chocolate does not have to go edge to edge on your baking sheet. Just make sure it’s an even layer. 

FAQs

What temperature do I need to melt the chocolate?

If you are melting your chocolate in the microwave, you will just keep it at its normal setting. The microwave reaches about 210? in 30-seconds. If you are melting the chocolate using the double boiler method, you would melt it at medium low heat which is a simmer.ย 

How long does this recipe take to make?

If you use your microwave to melt the chocolate, you will only spend about 5-minutes melting it. The additional time you need for this recipe is 25-minutes for the chocolate to set in the fridge. You should have tasty Easter bark ready to eat in as little as 30-minutes.ย 

How do I store Easter bark?

You can store any uneaten Easter bark in a ziploc bag on the counter for up to 10-days. However, the room should not be any warmer than 70? otherwise the chocolate will melt. You can also place it in the refrigerator for 2-3 weeks, or in the freezer for a few months.ย 

Can I use a double boiler to melt the chocolate?

Absolutely! In fact, this is the best way to melt chocolate. However, the microwave is a quicker solution. To use the double boiler method, you donโ€™t need a double boiler. Simply fill a bigger pot with 2โ€ of water, and then place a smaller pot on top with your chocolate. Simmer the pot of water until the chocolate is melted. The steam from the water stays trapped between the two pots which heats the chocolate in the top pot.ย 

What else can be added to the bark?

Bark is versatile, so you can add lots of different toppings to it. Here are a few of the most popular additions:
Chocolate chips
Crushed oreos
Chopped candy bars
Pretzels
Dried fruits like cranberries.
Nuts
Chopped candy canes or peppermint
M&Ms
Sprinkles
Peeps
