What is Almond Bark?
Almond bark is a chocolate-flavored white concoction that is made to melt easily over candy, pretzels, cereals, and more! This particular vanilla bark slab combines the delicious flavors of almond and chocolate to create a scrumptious white festive coating on the snack mix.

- After coating all of the cereal mixture, spread it on foil-covered baking sheets and cool to room temperature.
