chocolate bark

Topped chocolate sheet

Chocolate bark is a flat slab of chocolate studded with nuts, dried fruit, candy pieces, or other toppings, then broken into irregular shards for serving.

The name comes from its resemblance to tree bark—rough, uneven pieces snapped from a larger sheet.

It's a popular homemade confection because it requires no tempering or special equipment: She made peppermint bark for the holiday party.
