To make this chocolate bark, I started by chopping up some regular sized Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups into small pieces.
Then I poured some milk chocolate chips and some semi sweet chocolate chips into a microwave safe bowl.
I melted the chocolate chips in the microwave.
Then I added some Frito’s corn chips to the bowl with the chocolate.
I stirred the corn chips and chocolate until all of the chips were completely coated in chocolate.
I poured the mixture out onto a 15 x 10 inch baking sheet lined with parchment paper and then pressed it out evenly to cover the entire pan.
While pressing the mixture down with the rubber spatula I was breaking the chips into smaller pieces making it easier to spread them out.
When I was done spreading out the chocolate and corn chips I took some Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups that I had chopped up into small pieces and sprinkled them on top.
I pressed down lightly on the Peanut Butter Cup pieces so that they would stick to the bark.
I placed the baking sheet in the fridge and left the bark to chill for about an hour until the chocolate had hardened completely.
Then I removed the bark from the fridge and broke it into pieces.
I love the crunch of the corn chips mixed with the smoothness of the chocolate.
The saltiness from the Frito’s stops the richness of the chocolate from being overwhelming.

This bark recipe would be a perfect addition to your Christmas baking.

I think I should have used a larger pan and thinned them out even more. They were pretty hard to break up in manageable pieces, but they are really good.

I made this and about 8 other sweets for a large family event, and this was by far the biggest hit. I used Butterfinger cups instead of Reese’s, and it was a fun add. Thanks for the great recipe

Question on size of Peanut Butter Cups for Fritos Peanut Butter Cup Bark. Are they the little (about) 1/2 inch size cups or the big (about) 2 inch size cups . I love Fritos & think this will be great if I get the Peanut Butter Cups in the right size for this recipe. Thanks for your help. Lois O.

I used the classic Peanut Butter Cups which are about 2 inches in diameter.
