Ingredients:

• Red Candy Melting Wafers (8 oz)
• Light Green Candy Melting Wafers (8 oz)

Equipment Needed:

• Baking Sheet
• Parchment Paper or Silicone Baking Mat
• Microwave-safe bowl (if using microwave method)
• Double Boiler or Pot and Heat-proof Bowl (if using stovetop method)
• For Decoration/Drizzle: Pastry Bag, Toothpick/Knife/Skewer

Directions:

• For Layered Chocolate:
  • Following directions shown below, make base layer of chocolate and allow to fully harden naturally or in refrigerator.
  • When base layer is completely hardened, make top layer according to directions below including "Top Layer Only" direction and skipping "Single Layer Only" direction.
• For Single-Layer Chocolate:
  • Follow the directions below, including the "Single Layer Only" direction and skipping "Top Layer Only" direction.

Microwave Directions:

1. Place first color of Compound Chocolate Melting Wafers into heat-safe, microwave-safe bowl. If making two chocolate layers with decorative drizzle, reserve approximately 2 ounces for decoration. Follow directions below, then repeat with second color.
2. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval.
3. When chocolate is almost fully melted, reduce to 15-second or 10-second intervals to avoid overheating or burning.
4. Working quickly, spread the chocolate onto a baking sheet lined with either parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Tap the sheet gently on the counter to even out the layer.
   • TOP LAYER ONLY:
   • Working quickly, spread the chocolate on top of previously made chocolate layer on baking sheet. Tap the sheet gently on the counter to even out the layer.
   • DECORATIVE DRIZZLE:
   • Working quickly, use a piping bag or spoon to drizzle the contrasting color chocolate in either a random pattern (for modern-looking drizzle) or straight lines (for feathered effect). To create feathered effect, lightly drag a toothpick, knife, or skewer through the lines in an up-and-down motion.
5. Allow bark to harden, either in refrigerator or naturally at room temperature.
6. When bark is completely cooled and hardened, break into bite-size pieces using hands or knife.
7. Enjoy!
