The February 2005 Recipe of the Month Buttery Chocolate Bark This recipe for a really terrific chocolate bark is so easy to create, you can make it for every Valentine on your list. We thank Judy and Gretchen Cullison of Sparks, MD for this fun (and fun to share) treat.
Ingredients 1 cup sugar 1 cup butter one 12 ounce package of good-quality semi-sweet chocolate chips (can use chopped good quality semi-sweet chocolate --Ed) Saltine ® or similar type crackers (enough to cover a jelly roll pan) Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a jelly roll pan with foil, smoothing carefully. Place the crackers on the foil-lined pan as though you were dealing out a deck of cards, one by one, until the pan is covered. Break any extra to cover all of the pan. Melt the butter and sugar together in a saucepan, stirring gently until just bubbling, then remove from heat. Pour sugar/butter mixture carefully over the crackers. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove from oven, cool slightly, and place the chocolate chips evenly over the crust. Return to oven, baking for 1-2 minutes more. Remove from oven and very carefully smooth the chocolate over the top with a spatula. Cool, then refrigerate for 2 hours. Remove foil, break the bark into pieces, and store in an airtight container, preferably in the refrigerator.   Enjoy with a tall glass of milk. Share with friends!
