Valentine Bark recipe

16 ounces of chocolate (white, milk, or semisweet chocolate)
2 cups valentine candy (you can use message hearts, cream filled chocolates, or any assortment of heart shaped valentine candy)

Prepare a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan by lining it with waxed paper, and set aside.
Melt the chocolate in a double boiler over very low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Alternately, you can melt the chocolate in the microwave, by heating in 1 minute intervals, stirring each time until smooth. Do not over heat.
Pour melted chocolate onto the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Sprinkle your chosen valentine candy evenly over the chocolate and press it in gently to secure it. Allow chocolate to set.
When cool, break chocolate into small pieces, and store the bark in an airtight container.
