Chocolate Malt Bark is such an easy holiday dessert recipe with only 4 ingredients! Wrap some in cellophane with a pretty bow and you've got the perfect hostess gift for any gathering.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat. Set aside.
Place the bittersweet and semisweet chocolate in a large heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Stir frequently until the chocolate has completely melted, then remove from the heat.
If using, slowly stir in the malted milk powder. Once added, stir vigorously for approximately 30 seconds to remove any lumps and dissolve the powder.
Allow the chocolate to sit for 5 minutes, stirring periodically, so it thickens back up just slightly. Pour the chocolate slowly onto the parchment paper, and spread to approximately 9x10 inches. Sprinkle the chopped malted milk balls on top.
Allow the chocolate to set for 60-90 minutes (you can place the baking sheet in the refrigerator to speed up the process).
Carefully peel the parchment paper away from the chocolate bark and place it on a large cutting board. Cut into individual servings. Store in an airtight container for up for 2 weeks.
Notes
The malted milk powder can be omitted, but it enhances the flavor of the malted milk balls.
