Peppermint Bark

Peppermint Bark

It doesn’t feel like Christmas until we make this yummy treat at home. I used to make mine in a flat dish and crack it into big chunks. However, once I found these molds it’s been a Disney Peppermint bark Christmas every year! These make such a great treat to gift to friends and neighbors and It’s SO easy to make…



Ingredients

  • Equal parts milk (or dark)chocolate and white chocolate
  • Peppermint extract
  • Crushed candy canes for topping
  • Sprinkles or any other cute toppings (optional)

Directions

  1. In a double boiler (boil water in a sauce pan and place a heat safe bowl on top) melt the white chocolate, stirring frequently. I also added food coloring to make my chocolate pink.
  2. Stir in peppermint extract to taste. I add very little because it’s potent. I would say 1/2 tsp per 12 oz of chocolate is good.
  3. Pour chocolate into your molds or pan. I used Mickey and Minnie silicone molds. Allow to cool. (You can put it in the fridge for 10 mins)
  4. Repeat step 1 with the milk or dark chocolate. Pour it into your mold over the hardened chocolate to create layers.
  5. Before the top layer hardens, sprinkle the crushed peppermint over the top and any other toppings you’d like. Allow to cool and remove from mold.
