I like to refer to this bark as “clean out your pantry and use all the mint things bark.” But for SEO purposes we’re going to just call it mint overload. ? This recipe is sooooo easy to make. It takes about 20 minutes total and half of that is letting it set! It’s a fun, festive treat for St. Patrick’s Day or for when you’re feeling like something EXTRA minty.

This particular bark calls for a swirl of both dark and mint chocolate, crushed Thin Mints, chopped Andes, and mini mint chocolate chips. I totally get that the average person may not have all of these exact ingredients on hand, and that’s ok! You can easily make this using whatever you have, that’s the fun thing about bark. You can swap out the Thin Mints for Grasshoppers or mint Oreos and the mini chocolate chips can be easily substituted as well. Guittard, Nestle and Hershey’s all sell mint versions.

To make the bark, simply melt the chocolates in two separate bowls (I did mine in the microwave), then pour one onto a parchment lined baking sheet, drizzle the other on top, then swirl them together. Everything else gets sprinkled on top. Refrigerate it for 10-15 minutes or until it’s set and then break it up. Easy, right?! I had my 2 ½ year old help me make this and she was able to everything by herself (aside from microwaving the chocolate and opening the refrigerator door ☺️). If she can make this so can you!

Instructions

  • Line a quarter sheet pan with parchment paper, set aside.

  • Heat the mint chips for 30 seconds on HIGH, then stir. Repeat twice if needed.
