Recipe by Alison Roman Sparkly candy canes and winking snowmen aren't for everyone. Salted Honey and Chocolate Bark is a sweet-and-salty confection that even the manliest of men would be pleased to nibble on—or make. No cookie cutters, sprinkles, or icin

Ingredients

  • 12 ounces saltine or Ritz crackers
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 6 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, melted
  • 1/2 cup dried tart cherries or sweetened dried cranberries
  • 2 tablespoons coffee beans, crushed
  • 1/4 cup roasted hazelnuts, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons roasted cacao nibs
  • 2 teaspoons flaky sea salt (such as Maldon)
  • Special equipment: A candy thermometer

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 °F. Using your hands, coarsely crumble crackers onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Toast in oven until golden brown, 8 –10 minutes. Transfer baking sheet to a wire rack and let crackers cool.
  2. Meanwhile, heat sugar, honey, and butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until butter is melted. Fit saucepan with thermometer and cook, whisking frequently, until thermometer registers 300 °F, 8 –10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in baking soda (mixture will bubble vigorously). Quickly pour mixture over crackers, spreading to coat evenly. Let cool completely.
  3. Drizzle chocolate over cooled crackers; immediately top with cherries, coffee beans, hazelnuts, and cacao nibs and sprinkle with salt. Chill until chocolate is hardened, at least 10 minutes. Break bark into pieces.
  4. MAKE AHEAD: Bark can be made 3 days ahead. Wrap tightly and keep chilled.
