Salted Chocolate Cookie Butter Bark

I bought a huge jar of cookie butter from a local warehouse club store, and I've been searching for cookie butter recipes.

I stumbled upon a recipe for Salted Chocolate Cookie Butter Bark, and since it looked so simple, I decided to make some.

Spreading the cookie butter filling onto the chocolate was a bit more difficult than I had expected (I had to use my hands), but the end result was divine!

I even had some Pinot Noir Sea Salt that was gifted to me at a California Pizza Kitchen event, so I sprinkled some on for color.  This would make a fabulous Valentine's Day treat!

My husband said it was one of the best treats I've made recently.
