Tips:
- To make the bark even more festive, use Christmas-themed sprinkles, chopped nuts, or crushed candy canes as toppings.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the sugar mixture by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If it forms a hard ball, the mixture is ready.
- For a smoother bark, strain the melted chocolate through a fine-mesh sieve before pouring it onto the prepared baking sheet.
- To speed up the cooling process, place the baking sheet in the freezer for 15-20 minutes before breaking the bark into pieces.
- Store the bark in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
