Ingredients
Directions
- Prepare a small sheet pan by lining it with parchment paper. A helpful trick is to crinkle the parchment before laying it down so it stays put without curling.
- Melt the Candiquik—it's sold in a microwave-safe tray. Heat it for 60 seconds, stir, then continue in 20-second bursts until fully smooth. For almond bark, just follow the instructions on the package.
- Pour the melted coating onto the prepared sheet and spread it evenly with a spatula to about a quarter-inch thickness.
- Add your favorite toppings—sprinkles, candy eyes, peanuts, or Reese's Pieces—and lightly press them into the surface. Place the bark in the fridge to chill until it's completely firm.
