Ingredients
Scale:
16 oz (450 g) semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup (120 g) chopped pecans, preferably freshly toasted
1 cup (120 g) graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup (100 g) brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup (60 ml) light corn syrup
1/2 cup (120 g) white chocolate chips (optional, for drizzling)
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
Prepare your workspace by lining a baking sheet (about 12x16 inches) with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semisweet chocolate chips and light corn syrup. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted and smooth, about 1-2 minutes total.
Once melted, stir in the vanilla extract, salt, and brown sugar until well combined.
Fold in the chopped pecans and graham cracker crumbs until evenly distributed.
Pour the chocolate mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it into an even layer.
If using, melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave as you did with the semisweet chocolate. Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the top of the dark chocolate layer.
Sprinkle a few additional chopped pecans on top for garnish, pressing them lightly into the chocolate.
Refrigerate the bark for at least 2 hours, or until completely set.
Once set, remove the bark from the baking sheet using the edges of the parchment paper. Break it into pieces.
