    How to Cut Chocolate Bark 

    So many people wonder how to cut chocolate bark, and the answer isn't actually very clear cut - pun intended! I recommend putting your chocolate bark in the freezer for about 5 minutes so that it is nice and solid, then using a sharp knife to cut chocolate bark into squares.

    HOWEVER - the fun thing about chocolate bark is that it is all broken up, just as pieces of bark from a tree would be if you tore them off. Just have fun with it!

    • Dark Chocolate- You can use dark chocolate chips in place of the semi-sweet chocolate chips!
    • Peanut Butter - Add ½ teaspoon of peanut butter to the chocolate and make it a peanut butter chocolate bark!
