Instructions
- First separate the marshmallows from the cereal. Then cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Using a microwave safe bowl, melt Almond Bark for 1 minute on High in microwave. Stir the outside to the inside and melt another minute, stir for maybe 30 more seconds more, and it should be ready to spread on cooking sheet.
- Just add by spoonfuls on top of parchment paper, reserving about 1/4 cup in your bowl.
- Using a spatula spread to about 1/4" thick.
- If you're just adding one color, you can add the food coloring and mint extract to what's left in the bottom of that bowl and stir well. If you want more colors, divide reserved chocolate into separate bowls then color. Just a dollop here and there on top of what you already placed on parchment paper. Drag skewer or knife through the colored chocolate, not too much - just enough to get the swirl of colors.
- Before the bark starts to set up sprinkle the sugar, add the rainbow charms, and add M&M's or whatever else you want. Just give it a little tap to set in place.
- Then refrigerate for at least an hour before breaking apart. Just touch in the center to make sure it's firm, then you know it's set up and ready to go.
