Ingredients
  

  • 12 ounces dark chocolate chopped (or high-quality chocolate chips)
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil or butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt plus more for sprinkling
  • Optional toppings: crushed peanuts pretzels, or flaky sea salt

Method
 

  1. Line a 9x13-inch baking sheet with parchment paper, letting the edges hang over for easy removal later.
  2. Melt the dark chocolate with the coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until completely smooth and glossy.
  3. Pour the melted chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it into an even layer about 1/4-inch thick using an offset spatula.
  4. Warm the peanut butter in the microwave for 15-20 seconds until it's fluid enough to drizzle easily.
  5. Drop spoonfuls of peanut butter evenly across the chocolate surface, then use a butter knife or skewer to gently swirl it through the chocolate in figure-eight motions.
  6. Sprinkle with sea salt and any additional toppings while the chocolate is still wet.
  7. Refrigerate for 20-30 minutes until completely firm and set.
  8. Lift the bark out using the parchment paper overhang, then break into irregular pieces by hand or cut with a sharp knife.
