Cinnamon Free Classic Chocolate Bark
Rich, glossy, and loaded with texture, this chocolate bark is the kind of treat that looks impressive but comes together with surprisingly little effort. Dark and white chocolate are layered and swirled into a beautiful marbled finish using a simple tempering technique that gives every piece that satisfying, professional-quality snap. Scattered across the top, roasted almonds, pistachios, and dried cranberries add crunch, chew, and a pop of color that makes this as gorgeous to look at as it is to eat. A final pinch of flaky sea salt pulls everything together, balancing the richness of the chocolate in the best possible way. For anyone navigating spice sensitivities, this recipe is a genuinely safe and delicious option — the ingredient list is clean and straightforward, with no warming spices hiding in the mix. Break it into rustic pieces and pile it onto a platter for a crowd, or wrap it up as a homemade gift that nobody will guess took under two hours to make.

12 servings
- 12 oz dark chocolate (60–70% cacao), finely chopped
- 4 oz white chocolate, finely chopped
- ½ cup roasted salted almonds, roughly chopped
- ⅓ cup dried cranberries
- ¼ cup roasted pistachios, roughly chopped
- 1 tsp flaky sea salt
Instructions
- 1
Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Divide the chopped dark chocolate into two portions: set aside about one-quarter (3 oz) in a separate small bowl, and place the remaining three-quarters (9 oz) in a heatproof bowl.
- 2
Set the heatproof bowl with the 9 oz of dark chocolate over a saucepan of barely simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Stir frequently until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth, and registers 115–120°F (46–49°C) on an instant-read thermometer.
