Ingredients
  

For the chocolate base
  • 12 oz semisweet chocolate chips
For the topping
  • 8 oz Reese's Miniature Cups unwrapped and roughly chopped
  • 0.5 cup peanut butter chips

Equipment

  • 1 9x13-inch baking pan
  • 1 microwave

Method
 

Melt the chocolate
  1. Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Put the semisweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave at 50% power in 30-second bursts, stirring each time, for 1 to 2 minutes total until smooth.
  3. Spread the melted chocolate in an even layer in the prepared pan.
Top and set the bark
  1. Scatter the chopped Reese's cups evenly over the chocolate, gently pressing them in.
  2. Put the peanut butter chips in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave at 50% power in 20-second bursts, stirring each time, for 40 to 60 seconds total until smooth.
  3. Drizzle the melted peanut butter chips over the bark.
  4. Refrigerate for 45 to 60 minutes until completely firm.
  5. Let stand at room temperature for 5 minutes.
  6. Break into pieces.

Notes

For clean pieces, make sure the bark is completely firm before breaking it. Store airtight in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks; freezing is fine for up to 2 months. For a dairy-free variation, use dairy-free chocolate and peanut butter chips along with dairy-free peanut butter cups.
