This Candy Corn Halloween Bark Is the Perfect Blend of Sweet and Salty

By Olivia Chadwick at North Carolina State University

We are now entering the time of year where baking takes over. Fall baking features apple flavors, cinnamon, pumpkin, and, by far the greatest ingredient, candy corn. While candy corn is absolutely amazing by itself (I can finish a whole bag in one sitting), it also goes great in this Halloween bark that's made from white and semisweet chocolate, pretzels, and marshmallows. It's better than any Halloween candy you'll get trick-or-treating, that's for sure.

Remove the semisweet chocolate layer from the refrigerator and spread the melted white chocolate chips onto the darker chocolate layer, creating a smooth layer on top. Feel free to marble the colors for a pretty effect.

Step 8

Sprinkle the additions onto the bark in any pattern, shape, or form. The white chocolate is quick to harden so do this quickly. Then place the bark in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to solidify.
