Ingredients

1 pound Milkcote

Directions

1
Set up a double boiler by filling the bottom pot with a small amount of water and bringing it to a gentle simmer.
2
Place the pound of Milkcote in the top bowl of the double boiler.
3
Melt the coating slowly, stirring frequently, ensuring the water below does not boil vigorously to prevent seizing.
4
Once fully melted and smooth, remove the top bowl from the heat.
5
Stir in your choice of crunchy add-ins, such as crunchy cereal, watermelon seeds, or chopped nuts, until evenly distributed.
6
Line a baking sheet with waxed paper or parchment paper.
7
Pour the mixture onto the paper and spread it out thinly into an even layer using a spatula.
8
Let the bark stand at room temperature until it firms up completely, about 30 minutes.
9
Once set, break the bark into irregular pieces by hand.
10
Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
