Line a baking dish with parchment paper.
Place the white chocolate and dark chocolate into separate microwave-safe bowls.
Microwave the chocolates in short intervals, stirring between each, until they are completely melted and smooth.
Pour the melted white chocolate onto the parchment-lined dish and spread it into an even layer.
Pour the melted dark chocolate over the white chocolate layer.
Use a spatula to gently swirl the two chocolates together to create a marbled effect.
Sprinkle the leftover trail mix evenly over the melted chocolate.
Gently tap the dish on the counter a few times to help the trail mix settle into the chocolate.
Place the dish in the freezer for a few minutes until the chocolate is completely hardened.
Once fully set, remove the bark from the freezer and break it into pieces to serve.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks, or refrigerate for 1 month; keep away from heat and humidity.

Yes. Milk chocolate, semi-sweet, or even dark chocolate can replace white chocolate. Avoid chocolate chips unless labeled melting wafers, as regular chips contain stabilizers that prevent smooth coating.
Keep all equipment dry and avoid adding water to the chocolate. Melt slowly over low heat or use a double boiler. If chocolate becomes grainy, add a small amount of coconut oil to restore smoothness.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks, or refrigerate for up to 1 month. Keep away from heat and humidity to prevent bloom.
Yes, maintain a 1:1 ratio of chocolate wafers to trail mix. Double or halve the batch as needed; melting and setting time remain the same.
Mix your own with any combination of nuts, dried fruit, seeds, and pretzels in roughly equal portions. Avoid wet or sticky ingredients that won't adhere to chocolate.
