Lemon Bark

Excellent! I grated the lemon drops in my blender and it turned out perfect. I will make this again and might add a dash of lemon extract to it to intensify the lemon flavor.

Such a great idea; a local chef featured this on the news @ noon, and I came right here for the recipe! Made for hubby to give away, and couldn't stop eating it! Thanks for posting riffraff!

Awesome! I used to buy this from a little frufru shop till I started making it myself. I like the candy well-crushed but not pulverized. Orange hard candy and lime hard candy are delicious as well and an assortment of the three is quite attractive in any gift basket. Thanks, RiffRaff, for posting!

I admit that I was a bit curious, even uncertain, about this but have never gone wrong with one of Riff's recipes yet so I decided to try it. **Wow** I've been trying to think of adjectives for this, but they all fall short. It is creamy and tangy at the same time, sweet and yet with a zing to it....simultaneously simple and complex. Neither the chocolate nor the lemon are overpowering, but balance each other out perfectly. (I used Ghiradelli white choc chips.) It was very easy to make but tastes decidedly gourmet. It's a nice change from the heavy sweetness that seems to abound at the holidays ~ kind of like a sorbet palate cleanser on your cookie tray, lol. Next time I will get the chocolate a bit warmer when I melt it as it cooled down pretty quickly when I added the lemon drop bits and perhaps didn't spread as easily as it would have otherwise. I got roughly a 9x13" piece of bark; next time I will plan on making a double batch as I can already tell this is going to be a big hit. Thanks SO much for posting this, Riff, and making me look good for the holidays, lol!
