Paan Masala Chocolate Bark

Festive fun treat for Diwali

Prep Time 15 minutes
Servings 4 people

Ingredients

  • 1 10oz-12oz Baking Chocolate Chips bag; Semi Sweet or Milk Chocolate I suggest getting a good quality bag chocolate chips; depending on the brand the size will vary. I used a Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips bag from Trader Joe's.

For Garnish

  • 1 tsp cardamom powder
  • 1 7 oz bag Lacha Sopari
  • 1 7 oz bag Tooti Frooti
  • 1 7 oz bag Kesar Mukhwas
  • 1 7 oz bag Calcutta Meetha Paan Mukhwas
  • Rose Petals

Optional

  • 1 can Pan Parag Paan Masala **Note contains tobacco of some sort that is used in Paan**

Instructions

  1. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper or a baking sheet like a silpat.

  2. Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30 second increments. Make sure to stir in between each time. Make sure to not over heat the chocolate. Should be completely melted in about a minute. After a minute if still not melted switch to 15 second increments. The chocolate is done when it is 90%-95% melted; keep stirring.

  3. Using a rubber spatula spread chocolate evenly onto the center of the baking sheet. Make sure to spread evenly; it will not cover the entire baking sheet. Aim for a bit of thickness so your bark can have a solid middle. Next sprinkle cardamom powder on top of the chocolate. If you are using Pan Parag Paan Masala you can sprinkle over the chocolate at this time. Next, using a spoonful of each of the topping, sprinkle on top of the chocolate one topping at a time. Once done with all the toppings, lightly use your hands to press the toppings into the chocolate. Do this gently. Place in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours or until hardened.

  4. Once hardened, using your hands break the chocolate up into pieces.
