With little to no prep time, Strawberry Pistachio Chocolate Bark is an effortless dessert with a gourmet taste! Sweet, salty, and rich flavors come together for an unforgettable treat.
Chocolate Bark is one of my favorite sweet treats that can be thrown together last minute but makes you look so prepared.
Strawberry Pistachio Chocolate Bark is a more elegant after-dinner dessert. All simple ingredients, but with a gourmet touch and beautiful spring flavors. Melting semi-sweet chocolate and swirling in a strawberry white chocolate will be the base for your Strawberry Pistachio Bark. Once you have created your base, chopping up pistachios and freeze-dried strawberries will add the flavor and texture for the most delicious chocolate bark.
Using high-quality chocolate is key because the focus is all on the chocolate. I love using semi-sweet chocolate because it appeals to the majority, but if you are really into dark chocolate, this is a good time to experiment. Chocolate Bark has a pure flavor that is only enhanced by the flavors that are added to the top and these flavors will set the tone. Whether you are looking for an elegant after-dinner dessert, a fun kid-friendly treat, or a special holiday treat, chocolate bark is that go-to dessert! Strawberry pistachio bark would be perfectly festive for Valentine's Day. If you find yourself falling in love with chocolate bark, check out this Chocolate Peanut Butter Easter Bark.

Tips for Amazing Strawberry Pistachio Bark
- If you don't have a food processor, you can place the strawberries in a resealable plastic bag and use a rolling pin to crush them to the desired consistency.
