Ingredients
110 ouncepackage white melting wafers (I used Ghirardelli)
¼teaspoongel food coloring, optional *see notes
½cupEaster candy ( I used M&M's and Robin Egg Whoppers)
2teaspoonsEaster bunny sprinkles
Instructions
Prepare a baking sheet with a layer of parchment paper.
Melt the wafers in a microwave safe bowl in short bursts, stirring between each. The wafers should completely melt in between 60-90 seconds depending on your microwave.
Spread the melted wafers onto the parchment paper in a smooth layer. This does not have to be perfect because you will be cutting it into irregular pieces.
Using toothpicks swirl small amounts of the gel food coloring throughout the melted white chocolate.
Sprinkle the candies and the sprinkles over the bark. Press down on the candies to secure them into the chocolate.
Place in the refrigerator to harden for 20 minutes.
Once the chocolate has hardened, slide the bark of the parchment paper and onto a cutting board and cut into pieces. Or you can snap off pieces.
Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
Adding the gel food color is purely for looks. If you can not find gel food coloring then I would just omit it from the recipe. Liquid food coloring would add to much liquid to the chocolate and may cause it to seize so I can not recommend it.
