Mustard Free Classic Chocolate Bark
Rich, glossy, and loaded with texture, this chocolate bark is the kind of treat that looks like it came from a fancy confectionery but comes together with surprisingly little effort. The combination of deep, bittersweet dark chocolate and creamy white chocolate swirled into a marbled pattern makes every piece genuinely beautiful — and no two break the same way. Roasted almonds and pistachios add a satisfying crunch, while dried cranberries bring a pop of tartness that keeps each bite from feeling too heavy. A final scatter of flaky sea salt ties everything together and makes the chocolate flavors sing. For anyone navigating condiment and spice allergies, this recipe is a breath of fresh air — every single ingredient is straightforward, with no hidden seasonings or sauces to second-guess. The tempering process, where you melt most of the chocolate and then stir in the reserved portion to bring the temperature down, gives the finished bark that professional-looking snap and shine without any special equipment beyond a thermometer. Break it into rustic shards and pile them on a plate, and it will disappear faster than you expect.

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.
