This is what I made for my brother’s birthday a while ago:
I made up the recipe for this candy bark, because originally I was going to make candy bark from a recipe, but we didn’t have all the ingredients or I didn’t like the recipe or something, so I decided to make up a recipe myself. I call it “Chocolate Peanut Butter Candy Bark.” Or “Choco-Peanut-Butter Candy Bark” for short(er).
Now for a short description. Ahem. This candy bark is delicately flavored with only the finest chocolate and creamiest peanut butter on earth, and sprinkled with deliciously candied pecans… OK, enough fancy language. I’ll translate that for you. This candy bark is made with semisweet chocolate chips, peanut butter, and sprinkled with yummy candied pecans. My family rated it five out of five stars (to add to my meal planner thingy), so it had better be good!
OK, I think the introduction is long enough now, let’s get to the recipe!
********************************************************
Chocolate Peanut Butter Candy Bark
- 1 and 1/2 cups of semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons of peanut butter
- 1/2 tablespoon of coconut oil (or any oil)
- 1/2 cup of candied pecans (I found a most delicious recipe for candied pecans on Pinterest right here. Seriously, even if you don’t make the candy bark, you should make these. You can do pecans instead of almonds.)
Melt the first three ingredients in a pan until smooth. Add candied pecans. Cover a cookie sheet in parchment paper, and pour the mixture onto it. Melt two tablespoons of peanut butter. (You can add just a few chocolate chips.) Drop the peanut butter in little dots all over the candy bark. Use a toothpick to swirl everything together to get a pretty marbled effect. Place the cookie sheet in the freezer for a couple of hours until candy is hard and brittle. Break into pieces and serve!
*******************************************************
I hope you enjoy this candy as much as we did!

Thank you to everything! They are absolutely delicious, and I love the winter theme too. Do you know how to “make it snow?” I just learned today. You just go to your WordPress dashboard, click “Settings,” then under that “General,” and near the bottom of the page there will be a place to turn “snow” on. I love it!
