What could say Boo! more than this adorable Boo Bark! Made with delicious orange melts and black chocolate melts.  You can get as creative you like to set the tone for your boo bark.

How To Melt Chocolate Melts In Microwave

In a microwave-safe container, microwave candy melts at 50% power or the defrost setting on your microwave. Melt for one minute to start. Remove and stir. Place back in the microwave for an additional 30 seconds at 50% power. Remove and stir. Continue to do this in 30-second intervals until smooth and creamy. Remember less is better. You can help melt some pieces that are still not fully melted by stirring with a spoon. You do not want to over microwave your chocolate.

How To Harden Chocolate Boo Bark Fast 

Since I use chocolate melts they will harden really fast. If you opted to use chocolate chips instead, you can add a little shortening to the chocolate to help it set up. Or place the chocolate in the freezer for 15-30 minutes to help set it faster.

Your chocolate needs to be stored in an airtight container or sealable bag. You can leave this on the counter at room temperature or choose to store it in the fridge. It is up to you which you choose. This chocolate will store for 7-10 days. 

Can You Freeze Chocolate Bark

Yes, you can. Simply place in freezer-friendly container and store for up to three months in the freezer. I love doing this to have on hand for a quick sweet treat when I get the craving. Pull out a piece or two and allow them to thaw on the counter for about 30 minutes before eating.
