Instructions

  • -Line the cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • -Melt the brown chocolate melts in a microwave safe bowl in 30 second intervals until the its liquid and smooth.
  • -Pour the chocolate over the cookie sheet and use a spatula to spread it out evenly across the parchment paper.
  • -Place the cookie sheet in the fridge for 5 minutes to solidify.
  • -While the chocolate is in the fridge, break some of your pretzel bows in half. Place all the pretzels to the side to use later.
  • -Melt the pink, white, and red chocolate melting wafers in separate bowls following the same melting instructions as above.
  • -Take turns pouring small portions each color of melting chocolate over the brown chocolate.
  • -Moving quickly use a toothpick or knife to drag the colors into each other horizontally, clean the knife and drag it again vertically to create a marble pattern.
  • -Next sprinkle the candy coated chocolates, pretzel pieces, and sprinkles all over the chocolate.
  • -Place the chocolate in the fridge for 10-15 minutes solidify.
  • -Heat up a cup of water to make it hot and place it near(but not next to) the cookie sheet.
  • -Place the cookie cutter in the hot water to warm it up, quickly take it out using a fork and wipe it with a paper towel.
  • -Press the warm cookie cutter into the chocolate on the cookie sheet to create heart shape cookie bark.
  • -Repeat this step until you have cut out your desired number of hearts. You may need to re dip the cutter to keep it warm, so you can cut out all of your hearts.
  • -Spray the Hearts with edible glitter for extra flare.
  • -Place the bark on a flat surface, Serve and Enjoy!

Notes

-I warmed the water up really hot but not boiling. If you decide to boil the water please take all safety precautions to make sure you don’t get burned.
-If you have a tiny heart cutter you can use that to cut out more hearts from the chocolate left over on the board.
-You can repeat the process with all your left over chocolate for more hearts. Just gather all the left over chocolate, remelt it on the parchment paper, put it in the fridge to solid and cut more hearts out with the warm cookie cutter.
-The bark can be stored in in a ziplock bag or an air tight container for up to 4 days. They can be placed in the freezer for 2 weeks but be warned the pretzel texture may change when they come to room temperature.
