Ingredients

  • 8 oz (225 g) semisweet chocolate, chopped
  • 2 oz (55 g) white chocolate, chopped
  • 2 tbsp orange or white sprinkles, optional

Method

  1. Line a small baking tray with parchment. Melt semisweet chocolate in a dry microwave-safe bowl at half power in 20-second bursts, stirring each time.
  2. Spread into a roughly 8-by-10-inch rectangle. Melt the white chocolate separately using the same method.
  3. Drizzle white chocolate across the dark chocolate. Drag a toothpick through the lines to make loose web shapes. Add sprinkles if using.
  4. Chill for about 30 minutes until firm, then break into pieces.

Make Ahead

Make up to 1 week ahead.

Storage and Reheating

Storage: Store in an airtight container in a cool spot or the fridge up to 2 weeks, with parchment between layers. Freezing is fine up to 2 months, though the surface may bloom a little.

Reheating: Not reheated. If refrigerated, let pieces sit out a few minutes before serving.
