I have a riddle for you. . .
What do you get when you mix
this
{white chocolate}
with this?
{jelly beans}
You give up?
I’ll give you a hint, it’s really yummy treat for Easter!
Friends, let me introduce you to
Jelly Bean Bark. . .
Yum!
Here is how you make it.
You’ll need a 24-oz bag of Nestle Premier White Morsels {this is the large size bag} and a 10 to 14 oz bag of jelly beans.
Melt your morsels on the stove using a double-boiler or in the microwave on 70% power. Be careful to stir frequently so that you do not burn the chocolate!! If you are using the microwave, heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted.
While your chocolate is melting, line a cookie sheet with wax paper.
Lay half of the jelly beans on the pan.
Pour the melted chocolate over the jelly beans and use a rubber spatula to spread it across the pan creating an even layer.
Place the remaining jelly beans on top of the melted chocolate. Allow to cool at room temperature for several hours or put in the refrigerator to cool for one hour.
Peel away wax paper and break into 2 to 3-inch pieces.
Enjoy!
Oooh that looks like it could be dangerous! Thanks for sharing 🙂
