Sugar and salt are a popular pairing around here, from Banana Pudding with Salted Caramel Sauce and Peanut Butter S’mores Bars to Marshmallow-Almond Brownies and Caramel Popcorn with Bacon. Now I’m adding one more dynamic duo to the lineup with this easy recipe for Sweet and Salty Dark Chocolate Bark.

Remember the Halloween Candy Bark? That holiday favorite is getting a salty makeover (in the best way possible). Welcome to the sweet soiree, popcorn and pretzels. Feeling extra-adventurous? Grab those potato chips from the pantry for added flavor and crunch.

  • 3 cups dark chocolate chips
  • 1 cup freshly popped popcorn
