Triple Chocolate Ultimate Peanut Butter Cup Bark will make the peanut butter lover in your house very happy. Peanut butter perfection!
I’ve had candy bark fever this past year! I’ve never been all that enthusiastic about candy bark, or very interested in making it, but I’ve come around.
I thought… it’s just a slab of chocolate. What’s so special about that?
That’s the precise beauty of chocolate bark though! Now I see what I’ve been missing.
I love the endless creative possibilities you get with starting a recipe with a blank sheet of melted chocolate as your canvas. I mean, the entire premise is a huge slab of melted chocolate sprinkled with candy. Sold.
What took me so long?
My candy bark fever started when I made this ultra-delicious tiger butter. From there, my infatuation snow-balled.
That tiger butter is a peanut butter lover’s dream! It starts with a slab of melted white chocolate mixed with creamy peanut butter, and is swirled with semi-sweet chocolate, and topped with 3 kinds of Reese’s cups.
Did you just die over it? You see how I got sucked into candy bark-making?
Since the tiger butter recipe, I’ve made two different types of Halloween candy barks, the obligatory classic peppermint bark for Christmas, and now I’ve made two additional peanut butter-focused candy barks.
This triple chocolate ultimate peanut butter cup bark is the first of those peanut butter-focused candy barks. I mixed peanut butter with melted chocolate almond bark so that even your basic slab of chocolate has peanut butter flavor!
That’s a MUST. The more PB, the better… obvi.
Then I drizzled it with melted semi-sweet chocolate chips, sprinkled it with white chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, Reese’s pieces, mini milk chocolate Reese’s cups, and mini white chocolate Reese’s cups.
I don’t think there’s anything else I could’ve done! As a peanut butter-lovin’ fool, this bark ties for first place in my book with the tiger butter.
It’s absolutely packed with peanut butter in many forms, and, as the name suggests, contains three different kinds of chocolate.
As if it could get any better, as with most candy barks, this takes only minutes to prepare!
But before we ate it all, I played candy bark Jenga again. That game is fun.
