Looking for a quick and easy last minute treat for the holidays? This is it! My Chocolate Almond Bark recipe can be made is just minutes and both looks and tastes amazing!
I started making this Christmas treat the first year I got married and I’ve been making it every Christmas ever since. It’s definitely a family favourite and because it takes no time to whip up, I love making it.
The rich dark chocolate combined with the smooth white chocolate and crunchy almonds is a winning combo!
Chocolate Almond Bark
Ingredients
8 Squares Bakers Semi Sweet Chocolate
6 Squares Bakers White Chocolate
1 Cup toasted almonds
Directions
Chop each square of chocolate into approximately 8 pieces
Place chopped semi sweet and chopped white chocolate into two separate bowls
Microwave each bowl for about one minute depending on your microwave. Essentially you want to see one-third of the chocolate still unmelted. You can also opt to use a double broiler method.
Stir chocolate until completely melted and smooth
Stir in a half a cup of almonds into each bowl until coated
Drop spoonfuls of chocolate, alternating white and semisweet onto a waxed paper lined baking sheet
Using the end of a knife, draw the semi sweet chocolate and white chocolate together to create a marbled pattern.
Refrigerate until firm
Break into pieces

I get a lot of compliments on this, but it’s so easy to make! You don’t need to use Bakers chocolate but that’s what I use. Just make sure whatever you are using is good quality chocolate!
If you want something a bit more dressed up, try this Cranberry Pumpkin Seed Bark. It’s pretty and tastes amazing!

That is such an easy recipe! I imagine you could add in anything you liked too. Maybe dried cranberries or candied ginger would be nice.

I have never made almond bark myself but I have eaten bark that others have made and I really liked it. This recipe sounds so easy and delicious that it will be on my Christmas baking list. Thank you so much for this recipe.
I love how easy it is to make this bark
When you say 8 squares of chocolate… Is that 8 squares i.e white wrappers which have 2 rectangle pieces therefore total 16 rectangles?
yes, the Bakers chocolate comes with 8 squares (with the line down the middle) and I use the whole box. Same with the white chocolate, but that box comes with just 6 squares.
