Christmas bark is one of my favorite holiday treats to make because it looks impressive but requires almost no baking skills. These recipes are perfect for gift-giving, cookie trays, and last-minute party contributions. Most of them come together in under 30 minutes and can be made days ahead, which is exactly what busy families need during the holiday season.
