Turtle Bark

  1. Instructions
  2. 1.Line a half sheet baking pan with parchment paper (cut about 8X8 square).
  3. 2.Melt 8oz of the dark chocolate over a double boiler and let sit for 2-3 minutes.

  6. 5.In a heavy bottomed saucepan over medium heat, place the sugar and melt until caramelized and it turns an amber color. With a heatproof rubber spatula move the sugar around as necessary to keep from burning.
