Ingredient Notes:
- Chocolate - I used semi-sweet chocolate, as well as white chocolate for this bark.
- Pistachios - Use already shelled pistachios for this recipe. Chop the pistachios up a bit before mixing them in.
- Salt - I used Fleur de Sel for this chocolate bark.
How to Make Marble Bark with Pistachios and Fleur de Sel:
- First, grab a cookie sheet or baking pan and line it with parchment paper. Set that aside.
- Now, you can melt the each chocolate SEPARATELY in a double boiler or the microwave. You decide.
- Once the chocolates are each melted separately, you are ready to assemble the bark.
- Start by tossing a handful of pistachios on the pan.
- Then, using about HALF of each chocolate, randomly drop spoonfuls of each chocolate all over the pan. Alternate them as much as you can.
- Toss another handful of pistachios over top as evenly as you can.
- Next, drop spoonfuls of both chocolates randomly around the pan again.
- Take a butter knife and use the edge to swirl patterns in the chocolate.
- Toss the last of the pistachios over top of the chocolate.
- Carefully sprinkle the fleur de sel over top.
- Pop the bark in the fridge to help it harden. It should take 30 to 60 minutes.
- Once the bark is set you can remove it from the fridge and either cut or snap it into pieces.
- You can store it for later or pop it on a serving dish.
- Serve!

Instructions

Maureen | Orgasmic Chef
I love your marble bark. Perfect for the whole family. Add pistachios and it's a complete winner for me.
Kim Beaulieu
Thanks Maureen. I love bark. Mini-me did not care for the fleur de sel at all. She is a plain jane kind of girl.
John@Kitchen Riffs
Who doesn't like bark? I mean the chocolate kind, not the kind that grows on trees. 😉 Fun stuff -- thanks.
Kim Beaulieu
Ha, I sort of dig both, but for different reasons. Lol.
Thanks John. xx

This is TOP of the line bark. Good Heavens! What a fabulous recipe to give as a gift. Personally I would be thrilled to get this as a gift. So I think I will gift myself. Excellent idea! Ha!
Kim Beaulieu
Thanks Carol. I love bark. I tend to make it for family functions and give it away as gifts. I am always whipping up new kinds.

You sure know how to make chocolate gorgeous, girlyfriend! By the way, I miss your face on Facebook... hope you're enjoying your summer with the hooligan <3
Kim Beaulieu
Thanks Becca. I love chocolate. It is my weakness.
I know right. I was off the grid for quite some time. I am so sporadic in summer. It will get worse next month since we are road tripping then b-dude is visiting. So I may go off the grid again. Once mini-me is back to school I can get back to my routine. But I figure this is my last summer with her home so I am soaking it all in while I can.

I love bark, too. I do something similar only mine is with coffee. Anyway is delicious! And all these recipes. That's a lot for a girl to handle, especially on a Friday!
Tracy Perry
What is fleur de sel and where can I but it?
Kim Beaulieu
Fancy salt basically. You should be able to purchase it on Amazon or in most high end grocery stores. If you cannot find it this is just as good without it. Hope that helps. xx

We made this today to bring to a church function. Rave reviews!
