Description
Gorgeous marbles of chocolate and peanut butter make up this rich dessert. It only takes a few minutes to make and looks like you put way more effort in it than you did!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 12-ounce bag of white chocolate or vanilla chips
- 3/4 cup creamy, natural peanut butter
- 1 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Line a 9x13 cake pan or rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, making sure the foil comes up the sides an inch or two. Set aside.
- Fill the bottom pan of a double boiler with 2 inches of water and bring to a good simmer. Place the top bowl onto the top and fill with the white chocolate or vanilla chips.
- Stir frequently until melted - I find using a nonstick spatula to scrape the sides works well.
- Add the peanut butter and stir until smooth. Add the mixture to the prepared pan and give it a few whacks on the counter to spread it out evenly.
- IMPORTANT NOTE: When you lift up the top of the double boiler, there will be condensation on the bottom of the bowl. Dry this with a dish towel before attempting to pour the mixture into the pan. Any water droplets that touch the chocolate will cause it to seize up.
- Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips to the double boiler (it's okay if there's a few little streaks of the white chocolate and peanut butter still in the bowl). Stir frequently until melted.
- Drizzle stripes of the melted semi-sweet chocolate onto the white chocolate and peanut butter in the pan. Insert the sharp edge of a butter knife to pull the stripes into the opposite direction from one side of the pan to the other, creating the marbled pattern.
- Allow to fully set up either on the counter or in the fridge. Once set, break apart into bark-like pieces or use a hot, sharp knife (run it under hot water) to cut into squares.
- Keep tiger butter in the fridge to keep the chocolate snappy, or it can be stored at room temp.
Notes
Recommended Equipment
Microwave: You can use the microwave to melt the chocolate instead of a double boiler - melt at 50% power in 25 second increments, stirring well after each one until melted. Proceed with other steps as written.
