Ingredients

  • 16 oz vanilla candy melts or almond bark
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup springtime chocolate candies M&Ms or Cadbury's
  • 1 cup salted pretzel sticks
  • springtime or Easter sprinkles

Instructions

  • Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper then set the pan aside.
  • If using almond bark, chop it into small pieces. Then, place the almond bark or vanilla candy melts into a microwave safe dish.
  • Heat the vanilla pieces in the microwave for one minute. Stir until the melted candy is smooth. If needed, microwave the candy for another 15-20 seconds. Do not overheat. 
  • Pour white chocolate chips into a microwave safe dish then heat for one minute. Stir until smooth.
  • Spread an even layer of the melted vanilla candy onto the prepared pan. Drop dollops of the melted white chocolate chips over the candy layer then use a spatula to swirl the melted vanilla and white chocolate together.
  • Before the bottom layer begins to set lightly press the pretzel sticks and chocolate candy or eggs onto the melted candy. Top the layer of pretzels and eggs with colorful sprinkles then use a teaspoon to lightly press them into the Easter Pretzel Bark.
  • Place your spring treat in the refrigerator for one hour or until set.
  • Remove the pan from the fridge then break the bark into snack size pieces.
  • Store pretzel bark in a large zipper bag or an airtight container.
