Ingredients
- 10 ounces white chocolate chips

Tips & Variations

- Try adding a pinch of sea salt on top for a sweet and salty flavor.
Storage
Store the bark in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks. Keep it away from heat and humidity to prevent melting. If it softens, you can chill it briefly before serving to firm it up again.
