Ingredients
  

Chocolate and Peanut Butter Base
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor.
  • 1 cup peanut butter chips
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil Helps to melt the chocolate smoothly.

Preparation
  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and vegetable oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.

Making the Peanut Butter Layer

  2. Drop pieces of the peanut butter mixture all over the layer of chilled chocolate, then press into an even layer.
Final Layers
  1. Pour the remaining melted chocolate mixture on top, then spread to cover the peanut butter layer.
  2. Sprinkle Reese’s pieces candies on top, then transfer back to the fridge or freezer to set completely before breaking into pieces.

Notes

Store your Reese’s Bark in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. If you want it to last longer, keep it in the fridge. Just let it come to room temperature before serving for the best taste. Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor and let each layer cool before adding the next. You can try using white chocolate for a different flavor or add crushed pretzels for a salty twist.
