Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces white chocolate melting wafers (e.g., Ghirardelli or Merckens)
- 1 ½ cups candy corn (classic Brach’s or store brand)
- Pinch of flaky sea salt (e.g., Maldon)
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, extending slightly over the edges for easy removal. Set aside.
- Place white chocolate melting wafers in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each, until completely smooth and glossy (about 1 ½ to 2 minutes total).
- Reserve about ½ cup of candy corn for the top. Stir the remaining 1 cup of candy corn into the melted white chocolate.
- Pour the chocolate and candy corn mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread into an even layer, about ¼-inch thick.
- While the chocolate is still wet, press the reserved ½ cup of candy corn into the top, spacing them out evenly.
- Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over the entire surface.
- Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and let set for at least 30 minutes, until firm and no longer sticky. (Alternatively, freeze for 15 minutes.)
- Once set, lift the parchment paper to remove the bark from the pan. Break into irregular pieces with your hands or cut into squares with a sharp knife.
Notes
White chocolate can burn easily; microwave in short intervals. Work quickly once chocolate is melted. Flaky sea salt is highly recommended to balance sweetness. For dairy-free, use dairy-free white chocolate. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
