Tiger Butter Bark

Delicious and creamy tiger butter bark swirls peanut butter and dark chocolate flavors for a confection that’s as pretty as it is addictive.

Do you have a favorite holiday cookie? Is it a nostalgic recipe you make with your mom every year? A crave-worthy, sinful sweet? Or maybe it’s the piece de resistance treat for your cookie plate. The recipe I’m sharing this year, Tiger Butter Bark checks all three boxes:

Tiger Butter Bark is variation on the bark I loved making way back when I worked at a chocolate shop in high school. It’s one of those confections that are truly hard to eat just one piece, and the bark’s graphic swirl design makes it a beautiful statement in the quintessential cookie plate.

It’s the season of making and sharing sweets in reckless abandon, am I right? So I’m teaming up with my fellow design bloggers to virtually swap holiday sweets.

Come on into my kitchen and make one of my favorites with me. Then hop over to my fellow designing ladies for their favorite cookie recipes too!
