Fruitcake Bark
Fruitcake Bark blends melted white chocolate with chunks of candied fruit, walnuts, and chopped ginger snaps to create a crunchy, sweet confection. The ingredients are spread in a thin layer and chilled until firm, then broken into irregular pieces, offering a textured treat reminiscent of fruitcake with a creamy white chocolate base.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup candied fruit chopped, mixed
- 1 tablespoon brandy , optional
- 1/2 cup walnuts
- 5 ginger snaps , coarsely chopped
- 20 ounces white chocolate melting disks
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine candied fruit and brandy just while you are preparing the recipe.
- Chop the walnuts.
- Break apart the gingersnaps making sure to discard any crumbs (this will make the bark look dirty).
- Line a 15x10 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
- Add your white chocolate melting disks to a microwave safe bowl.
- Melt the white chocolate in 30 second increments stirring each time until completely smooth.
- Spread the melted white chocolate into the jelly roll pan evenly.
- Sprinkle on the chopped fruit, the walnuts and the cookie pieces, pressing any in lightly that are not set into the chocolate.
- Refrigerate until hardened then break into pieces (this shouldn't take more than 10 minutes).
