Grinch Pretzel Bark Ingredients
- Green candy melts
- White candy melts (half bag)
- Pretzels (optional)
- Peppermint extract
- Coconut oil
- Sweets & Treats Mean One Sprinkles
- Red Candy Hearts (optional)
- For exact amounts, please see the recipe card below.
Supplies Needed for Christmas Grinch Bark
- Parchment paper
- Baking sheet
- Microwave safe bowls
How to Make Chocolate Grinch Bark
Cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Start by adding 1 teaspoon of coconut oil to the green candy melts. Place in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time, mixing after each time.
Mine took about 2-3 minutes but every microwave is different so keep checking because no one wants burnt chocolate!
Towards the end, there may be some lumps. However, rather than place it in the microwave for another 30 seconds, keep mixing and they will melt.
Add in your peppermint extract if you are using it.
When finished, pour onto parchment-covered baking sheet and spread out.
Meanwhile, melt your white chocolate candy melts following the same directions as above. Add in your ½ teaspoon of coconut oil.
When finished, pour onto the green chocolate and swirl with a knife or toothpick until you reach your desired look.
Quickly sprinkle on your Mean One Sprinkles and red candy hearts while still wet.
Place in the refrigerator to harden, roughly around 15 minutes.
Take out and cut or break into pieces.
Enjoy!
