Peppermint Bark

Peppermint Bark is a favorite during the holiday season! This recipe is incredibly easy and fun to make! I made this recipe my own by adding a few petite mint chips to the white chocolate. The flavor of this holiday treat is delicious, rich, and refreshing!

 

Recipe:

Crushed candy canes, to yield 1 cup
2 pounds white chocolate
Peppermint flavorings, optional (about 2 teaspoons)

  1. Place candy canes in a plastic bag and hammer into ¼ inch chunks or smaller.
  2. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler.
  3. Combine candy came chunks with chocolate (add peppermint flavoring at this point if desired). Pour mixture onto a cookie sheet layered with parchment or waxed paper and place in the refrigerator for 45 minutes or until firm.
  4. Break into large pieces and serve!

A couple notes:

I didn't find it necessary to add any peppermint flavorings because I already added the petite mint chips.

Enjoy!
