Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams dark chocolate
- 150 grams white chocolate
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon lemon extract
- 2 tablespoons yellow sprinkles (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt flakes (optional)
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat and set aside.
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and melt it in a heatproof bowl over a pot of gently simmering water, or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth.
Pour the melted dark chocolate onto the lined baking sheet and spread it into an even layer about 1/4-inch thick using an offset spatula.
Chop the white chocolate into small pieces and melt it using the same method as the dark chocolate.
Add the lemon zest and lemon extract to the melted white chocolate and stir until fully incorporated.
Drop spoonfuls of the lemon-infused white chocolate over the dark chocolate layer. Using a toothpick or skewer, swirl the two chocolates together to create a marbled effect.
Sprinkle the yellow sprinkles and sea salt flakes evenly over the surface of the bark, if desired.
Allow the bark to set completely at room temperature for 2-3 hours, or speed up the process by placing it in the refrigerator for 30-45 minutes.
Once the bark is fully set, break it into irregular pieces. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
