Nutty Dark Chocolate Bark Recipes

Steps:

• Melt the two chocolates in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water.
• Meanwhile, line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Using a ruler and a pencil, draw a 9-by-10-inch rectangle on the paper. Turn the paper face-down on the baking sheet.
• Pour the melted chocolate over the paper and spread to form a rectangle, using the outline. Sprinkle the cashews, apricots and cranberries over the chocolate. Set aside for 2 hours until firm. Cut the bark in 1-by-3-inch pieces and serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Line a sheet tray with parchment paper and set aside.
• Place ¾ of the chocolate in a large glass bowl and microwave on high power for 20 to 30 seconds. Stir with a rubber spatula. Continue to heat and stir in 30-second increments until the chocolate is just melted. Immediately add the remaining chocolate and allow to sit at room temperature, stirring often, until it's completely smooth, slightly cooled, and glossy.
• Stir in almonds and hazelnuts. Pour mixture onto prepared sheet tray and, using a small offset spatula, smooth into a rough rectangle, using the thickness of the nuts as a guide.
• Refrigerate until firm, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Crack or cut bark into equal pieces and enjoy.
