Salted Caramel Pretzel Bark

I love making bark.  It's super easy to make, and super yummy too!

I make it for all sorts of holidays and I usually use whatever I can find in the pantry - sprinkles, peanut butter, cookie butter, candies, etc.

A recent last-minute get-together resulted in Salted Caramel Pretzel Bark.

I used Sea Salted Caramels I bought in Wyoming and mini bags of pretzels we had on hand.

Simply place a layer of graham crackers on a parchment-lined cookie sheet, spread melted chocolate all over the graham crackers (I used 1 cup chocolate chips melted on high in the microwave for 1 minute), swirl the caramel into the chocolate (I melted 2 large caramel pieces - about 1/4 c worth; 30 seconds on high in the microwave), and sprinkled on pretzel pieces.

Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before breaking the bark into pieces

I absolutely loved the sweet / salty combo!

Last year for Christmas, I made a trio of bark flavors to giveaway to neighbors- Cookie Butter, in addition to Vanilla + Peppermint and Chocolate + Holiday Sprinkles.

Simply place a layer of graham crackers on a parchment-lined cookie sheet, spread melted chocolate all over the graham crackers, and sprinkle on the toppings!  

Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before breaking into pieces.

Cookie Butter Graham Cracker Bark

Over the holidays I made some Cookie Butter Graham Cracker Bark for friends and neighbors.  They are very similar to the Marbled Chocolate Treats I often make.

I simply placed graham crackers on a baking sheet, spread them with chocolate (for this recipe, I used 1/2 a package of chocolate almond bark, melted in the microwave on high for 60 seconds), and added dollops of cookie butter.

I then took a knife to swirl the cookie butter throughout the chocolate, cooled for 15 minutes on the counter, then placed in the refrigerator for at least another 30 minutes before breaking apart into pieces.

Such an easy, no-bake treat!

They are great for the holidays - or any time of year!
