Pumpkin Spice Latte Bark:
You’ll need :
1 {12 oz.} bag white chocolate chips — Nestle Premier White Morsels are preferable
2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
1/4 tablespoon pumpkin spice
1/2 tablespoon instant espresso powder
- Line a cookie sheet with a silicone baking mat. {Foil may also work.} Place in freezer until ready to use.
- Place heat-proof bowl over a saucepan with simmering water. Make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn’t touch the water. Place white chocolate chips in the bowl and stir until melted and smooth.
- Once melted, transfer half of the melted chocolate to another bowl. Working quickly, stir in pumpkin spice and puree a little at a time. Mix until fully incorporated.
- Remove lined cookie sheet from the freezer and pour pumpkin layer onto the center of the mat. Using a silicone spatula, quickly spread the mixture into a thin layer. Return to freezer and allow to solidify for about 10 minutes.
5.Set aside a few tablespoons of melted white chocolate. Add instant espresso powder to the remaining melted chocolate and stir until well incorporated.
- When pumpkin layer is somewhat solid, remove from the freezer. Pour coffee layer over top of the pumpkin layer and smooth evenly over top. Return to the freezer for another 10-15 minutes or until solid.
- Once it is cold, peel it from the mat or foil as one solid piece. Optional: flip over and drizzle with reserved white chocolate just to make it pretty. Return it to the freezer for a few minutes after drizzling to let the final white chocolate set.
- Remove from freezer and break into pieces. Keep it refrigerated before eating.
