"Paula, Paula, you clever girl!! THIS RECIPE IS DYNOOOMITE! I use it several times a year. Very rich, very delicious. I've covered the chocolate with all kinds of nuts. I've crushed candy canes and used white chocolate chips, also pretzels with the top of the bark. Its just plain good, everyone AND easy and not expensive to make. You will be the hit of the party when you bring these wonderful treats. They look so good in little clear bags as gifts and they keep for a while in the frigerator in a tight container. MAKE IT, you won't regret it. coco
