Pack them in a fun container and you have a gift in less than 20 minutes. That's about how long it took me to make this batch last week, including time to find and clean the container.<\/p>\n<p>I always try to keep some chocolate and vanilla melting wafers or chips on hand for just such an emergency. I used these <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2yU6O7F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Ghirardelli Dark<\/a>\u00a0and <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2BJwklM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Ghirardelli White<\/a> wafers (those are affiliate links, I may receive a commission for any purchases through these links at no cost to you) and sprinkled them with some Ghirardelli Peppermint Baking Chunks and some festive sprinkles and colored sugar.<\/p>\n<p>In case you are wondering, Ghirardelli is\u00a0<strong>not<\/strong> sponsoring this post, but I am a California girl and I love their products so I usually have them on hand year round. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>[clickToTweet tweet=\"Chocolate Bark is a quick and easy treat that makes a great last
