It beats allrecipes.com, foodnetwork.com, abouteating.com, and etc. And it's easy to follow. If you want a more intricate peppermint bark, then I suggest you go to abouteating.com.

Every time I spread the white chocolate over the dark, the dark melts a bit and swirls into the white. I have tried dozens of recipes. What am I doing wrong? Type your comment here.

We don't have Trader Joe's here. Can you recommend the best chocolates to use?? I can get guridelli chips in a large quantity and guridelli white chips, will that work? Thanks so much!

Almond bark, candy coating, and chocolate chips can be heated in the microwave. Just keep the power low and stir frequently. Otherwise, anything you can use to heat water and put a bowl over without allowing the steam to actually come into contact with the chocolate is a double boiler. A sauce pan or a hot pot with bowl over it works fine. Ev, You have a couple of options.

It's great to use for making any of the bark candies, and for dipping (such as white choc. covered pretzel sticks). The almond bark works well for this stuff because you don't have to worry about tempering it and it sets up quickly. Give it a try and let us know what you think of it. :) Almond bark basically tastes like white chocolate.
