Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups of animal crackers (like Dumbo-themed crackers or classic circus animals)
- 12 oz semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips or melting chocolate
- ½ cup white chocolate (optional, for drizzling)
- ¼ cup colored sprinkles
- ½ cup pretzel sticks (optional for extra crunch)
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler, melt the chocolate chips until smooth, stirring frequently.
- Optionally, melt some Ninja Air Fryer Pro for quick melting. Ensure the chocolate reaches about 115°F for perfect consistency.

- Immediately sprinkle the animal crackers over the chocolate, gently pressing them into the surface.
- Add colorful sprinkles on top for a festive look.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or until the chocolate is firm.
- If desired, melt some Ninja Air Fryer Pro or a microwave and drizzle white chocolate over the set bark for added visual appeal.
- Break into irregular pieces and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
Notes
- Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor and texture.
- Customize with different types of crackers or additional toppings like nuts.
