Toffee apple chocolate bark
Report
I've been making chocolate bark as gifts for ages. I just love that it's quick and easy, impressive-looking and so simple to customise in many different ways. This tasty chocolate bark is sprinkled with dried apples and honeycomb. Just perfect for Autumn!

Ingredients
- 2 small apples or 1 large one
- 7 ounces milk chocolate
- 3.5 ounces white chocolate optional – you can use 10 ounces milk choc if you prefer
- 1 Cadbury’s Crunchie bar or similar crushed (see note below)
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 90C/190F, and line two baking trays with baking paper.
- After washing the apple(s) and twisting off the stalk(s), slice them as thinly as you can (so the slices are ideally about 2 or 3mm thick) and lay them on the baking trays in one layer.
- Bake the apples for an hour, then turn and bake for another hour. Remove from the baking trays and set aside to cool.
- Melt the milk chocolate in a medium bowl in the microwave in 30-second bursts (3 times was about right in my microwave).
- Pour the chocolate onto one of the baking trays, spreading out a bit with a knife if necessary.
- Now melt the white chocolate in the same way (if using) and drizzle all over the milk chocolate. Drag a knife through it a few times to create a swirl/ripple effect.
- Now scatter the dried apple (either whole or torn into smaller pieces – your choice) and the crushed honeycomb over the chocolate, pressing it in lightly.
- Let set in the fridge for at least half an hour (or until properly set), then break into pieces (see note below).
Notes
- If you can’t buy Crunchie bars where you live, any kind of honeycomb bar will do. In Australia, a Violet Crumble is perfect. If you can’t find any honeycomb, melt a few caramels (the sort you get wrapped up separately in a big bag) and drizzle that over at the end instead. Or there’s a recipe for honeycomb here if you’re feeling ambitious!
- If you don’t have a microwave, melt the chocolate in a glass bowl over a pan of simmering water (don’t let the bowl touch the water).
- You won’t need all of the apple for your chocolate bark. Store the remainder in a plastic container and eat as a snack or scattered over oatmeal later. It will keep in the fridge for at least a week and for at least a few days out of the fridge.
- I like to pack the chocolate bark into a cellophane bag and tie with a nice ribbon before presenting as a gift. It looks great and people always think I’ve bought it!
