Method:

  1. Line baking sheet with foil. Place a heat-proof bowl over a heavy, medium saucepan filled with lightly boiling water over a medium-low heat. Add semisweet chocolate chips and stir constantly with a wooden spoon until melted and warm to touch (NOT hot to touch which would result in grainy chocolate).
  2. Pour chocolate onto foil; spread to 1/4-inch thickness (about 12×10-inch rectangle). Sprinkle with Butterfinger candy, toffee, peanut butter cups, and nuts, making sure all pieces touch melted chocolate to adhere.
  3. Put white chocolate in a bowl over a heavy, small saucepan of lightly boiling water. Using a wooden spoon, stir constantly over very low heat until chocolate is melted and warm (not hot) to touch. Remove from heat. Dip spoon into chocolate; wave from side to side over bark, creating zigzag lines. Scatter Reese's Pieces and M&M's over, making sure candy touches melted chocolate.
  4. Chill bark until firm, 30 minutes. Slide foil with candy onto work surface; peel off foil. Cut bark into irregular pieces. Enjoy!
