Easy Peanut Butter Chocolate Bark
A simple and delightful no bake treat that combines creamy peanut butter with rich chocolate.
recipesbynani.comThis peanut butter bark is one of my favorite things to make when I need a sweet treat in a hurry. It is perfect for satisfying those chocolate and peanut butter cravings, and it looks beautiful enough to share with friends or bring to a party.
My secret for the best texture is to use a high quality chocolate and creamy peanut butter. Make sure to melt your chocolate slowly so it stays smooth and shiny instead of getting grainy.
🧺 Ingredients
- 12 ounces semi sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil, divided
- 1/4 cup chopped peanuts
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1 pinch sea salt
👩🍳Instructions
- 1
Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper so the bark does not stick.
- 2
In a microwave safe bowl, combine the semi sweet chocolate chips with half of the coconut oil. Melt in thirty second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely smooth.
- 3
In a separate small bowl, combine the peanut butter and the remaining coconut oil. Microwave for about thirty seconds until it is thin and easy to drizzle.
- 4
Pour the melted chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it into an even layer using a spatula.
- 5
Drop spoonfuls of the melted peanut butter over the chocolate and use a knife to swirl the two together for a marbled look.
- 6
Sprinkle the top with chopped peanuts, mini chocolate chips, and a tiny pinch of sea salt.
- 7
Place the tray in the refrigerator for at least an hour until the bark is completely firm.
- 8
Once set, break the bark into smaller, jagged pieces with your hands or a knife and serve.
💡 Tips
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep the chocolate from melting. This bark tastes wonderful served chilled straight from the fridge.
