The 2-Ingredient Cookie Bark I Can’t Stop Making

When it comes to chocolate chip cookies, I tend to be on team a little gooey in the middle. Then someone serves me a crispy cookie, and I remember why they’re so good. You get a bit of caramelized flavor and a buttery crunch that you simply don’t get from a standard chocolate chip cookie. Talk about delicious.

If you like a crispy cookie, or even if you’re on the fence, then this cookie bark is for you. It’s a magical recipe, because it only requires two ingredients (yes, two!) to make, but it feels truly special. Everyone will love the crispy, craggy piece topped with melted chocolate.

Tips for Making This Cookie Bark

The first key to success here is to really spread out the dough. Make sure it spreads out into a thin, even thickness. If you end up with a few little holes, that’s okay—the dough will puff up and spread as it cooks. If the dough starts sticking to your hands, stick the pan in the fridge for a few minutes to firm it up.

The second is baking the bark long enough. Let it go until it’s a nice deep brown all over, but not so long that it burns.

Have Fun With Toppings

We like to add a generous sprinkle of flaky salt to balance out the sweetness, but it’s certainly optional. For a fun presentation, add colorful sprinkles, chopped nuts, or Health Bar crumbles. No matter what topping you choose, add it while the chocolate is still melted so that everything adheres.
