Method
 

Instructions:
  1. Step 1: Prepare Your Baking Sheet - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, ensuring it covers the entire surface.
  2. Step 2: Melt the Dark Chocolate - In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the coarsely chopped dark chocolate. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth and fully melted.
  3. Step 3: Combine Ingredients - Once the chocolate is melted, stir in the quartered Oreos, coarsely chopped pretzels, and salted peanuts until everything is well coated with chocolate.
  4. Step 4: Spread the Mixture - Pour the chocolate mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread it evenly.
  5. Step 5: Add M&Ms and White Chocolate - Before the chocolate sets, sprinkle the holiday M&Ms over the top and drizzle the melted white chocolate.
  6. Step 6: Sprinkle with Holiday Cheer - Finish by adding the holiday sprinkles on top for a final festive touch.
  7. Step 7: Chill to Set - Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 1-2 hours, or until the chocolate is completely hardened.
  8. Step 8: Break and Enjoy - Once set, lift the bark off the parchment paper and break it into pieces.

Notes

  • Chop chocolate evenly for consistent melting.
