Today’s recipe is for the rejects. The has-beens. The losers. It is also for the lazy. The procrastinator. The anti-Valentine. It’s my ridiculous easy recipe for Valentine Rejects Bark. I am not kidding about how easy this recipe is. It’s so easy, even a love-spurned grump can do it blindfolded on a lonely Valentine’s Day night.
I originally started making this bark years ago, as a visceral ritual of candy repurposing. It’s perfect for that random, flavorless cupid candy you get on the day of from a co-worker, friend, or let’s face it… your mom. Yup, I am in my mid-30s, have my own kid, been married close to a decade, and I still receive a box of kitschy candy and stuffed animals from my mom every year. And let me tell you something about that uber cheesy box… I love it! It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. But besides the yummy truffles and flavored heart-shaped marshmallows, she always sends conversational hearts and some inedible hard candy sucker. My solution is not to throw them out. I would much rather infuse them with new life. Plus, the bark looks pretty cool. Let’s get started…
