DARK CHOCOLATE PRETZEL BARK
This is perhaps the quickest and easiest candy that I've ever made. It takes just a few minutes and makes a delicious holiday gift for friends (or myself). This would also be good with the white (vanilla) microwavable candy wafers.

Steps:
- 1. Place the wafers into a microwavable bowl. Microwave for a minute, stir and microwave for another minute. Stir again and if the wafers are not completely melted, microwave again for 30 seconds. Don't overheat, or the chocolate will seize up and be unusable.
- 2. Stir in the broken pretzel pieces until all the pieces are completely covered with the chocolate.
- 3. Spread the mixture on an aluminum foil covered cookie sheet. Chill about 1/2 hour or until firm.
- 4. Break up the bark into smaller pieces. Store in an airtight container in a cool place.
Tips:
- Use high-quality dark chocolate for the best flavor.
- Make sure the pretzels are fresh and not stale.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the chocolate to see if it is ready by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the chocolate hardens immediately, it is ready.
- Spread the chocolate evenly over the pretzels, making sure to cover them completely.
- Sprinkle the chopped pretzels on top of the chocolate immediately so that they stick.
- Refrigerate the bark for at least 30 minutes before breaking it into pieces.
- Store the bark in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
