4th of July Bark

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July! I took a vacation down to Oklahoma to celebrate with my fiance's family and decided to take a much needed break all together.  We had a wonderful time and we were so happy to get to visit everyone! 
Well, with it being Wednesday, I am sure you are expecting a cat post. I have moved cat posts to Friday's and now it will be called Anything Can Happen Wednesday! (Any Big Bang Theory fans out there?) So, today's post is on how to make 4th of July Bark! It's a lot of fun to make and really easy, tasty too! Here is what you will need:

- Foil Pan (size depends on how much you want to make and how thick/thin you prefer)
- Tooth Picks
- Microwavable Bowl
- White Almond Bark
- Red & Blue Food Coloring
- Red, White & Blue Sprinkles
- Red, White & Blue Pearl Candies or M&M's


Instructions:

Take the almond bark and melt in a microwavable bowl. You will want to do 30 second intervals to keep it from burning and caramelizing. Once melted, pour into the foil pan. You will want to pick up the pace at this point so that it doesn't turn back into bark just yet. Next you will drop a few drops of red food coloring here and there and same for the blue food coloring. Then you take a toothpick and swirl the colors around! After you have swirled to perfection, you scatter the sprinkles and m&m's/pearl candies. Once you are finished with the decorating, stick the pan in the fridge to set and TADA! You have 4th of July Bark!
