🍬🍹 Margarita Bark Candy with Tequila 🍹🍬
Bright, zesty, and just for grown-ups — this Margarita Bark Candy combines the creamy sweetness of candy melts with a splash of tequila and lime for a festive, boozy treat that’s perfect for holidays, parties, or Cinco de Mayo celebrations!
Ingredients:
White candy melts (about 12 oz or 2 cups)
Lime green candy melts (about ½ cup)
2 tablespoons tequila (silver or blanco recommended)
1 tablespoon sweetened lime juice
Sparkling sugar (for garnish)
Directions:
Prepare the Tray:
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Melt the Candy Melts with Flavor Add-ins:
White Layer: Before melting, stir 2 tablespoons of tequila into the white candy melts. Then melt according to package instructions (microwave or melting pot).
Lime Green Layer: Stir 1 tablespoon of sweetened lime juice into the green candy melts before melting, then melt as directed.
Spread and Swirl:
Pour the melted white candy mixture onto the prepared baking sheet.
Use a spatula or butter knife to spread it into an even layer.
Drizzle the melted green candy mixture on top.
Use a knife to swirl in figure 8 patterns for a marbled effect.
Add the Sparkle:
Quickly sprinkle sparkling sugar over the top before the bark hardens.
Chill and Break:
Place the tray in the refrigerator until fully set (about 20–30 minutes).
Once hardened, break the bark into uneven pieces.
Serve & Enjoy:
Store in an airtight container in the fridge. Remember — this treat is for adults only due to the alcohol content!
