Crunch Factor: Mix in crushed cookies, pretzels, or nuts to add texture and flavor to the bark.

🔪How to Make Galaxy Chocolate Bark

Melt the black chocolate per package directions and spread over a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Melt each of the other colors of chocolate and put dots of it all over the black chocolate.

Take a knife and swirl the colors around.

Make sure you don’t over swirl the colours, you still want to see plenty of the black chocolate.

Sprinkle the nonpareils and the gold stars all over the chocolate.

Let the chocolate harden and then break it into pieces.

This Galaxy Bark is a fun treat to make with the kids!

Use a mix of dark, milk, and white chocolate to create that cool, cosmic swirl effect.
Add edible glitter or star-shaped sprinkles to make your galaxy bark extra sparkly and magical.
