4th Of July Candy Bark

Serves: 6 to 8
Prep: 20 Minutes
Inactive Time: 30 Minutes

Ingredients:

6 oz each:

• blue candy melts
• red candy melts
• white candy melts

1 tablespoon star sprinkles

1 tablespoon medium pearl white sprinkles

Instructions:

Heat the candy melts as directed on the back of the bag as most brands vary. I usually heat mine on defrost mode for 1:30 and repeat this three times then stir well.

Place parchment paper on a small baking sheet. Pour out melted blue candy melts onto the parchment paper. Spread well with the back of a spoon.

Drizzle both red and white melted candy melts over the blue. Sometime I swirl some with the back of a spoon.

Shake the star sprinkles and pearl white sprinkles over the top. Take a spatula and light press the sprinkles into the candy melts in order for them to stay better when breaking the bark.

Let dry and harden for about 30 minutes. Once hard, break apart into medium pieces for serving.
