A few notes on white chocolate red velvet bark:
• I highly, highly suggest Ghirardelli white chocolate baking bars. They taste fabulous and melt well.
• Follow my instructions for baking the cake below. The box might call for water and oil. But it will taste much better with milk and melted butter.
• These are easiest to break up if you cut the chilled final product with a sharp knife.
• Store the uneaten bark in the fridge. (It has cream cheese frosting in it, so it can’t be stored at room-temperature…plus the white chocolate softens easily).
