Blogmas Day 3 | Peppermint Bark

One of my favourite Christmas treats to make is my peppermint bark, it's delicious and is always popular with my friends and family! It is one layer of peppermint flavoured milk chocolate then a layer or white chocolate and then topped with crushed candy cane! It's really easy to make and so delicious! It's also really easy to tweak the recipe to the way you want using dark chocolate etc. Below is the recipe!

Ingredients:

452g of Milk Chocolate Chips

452g of White Chocolate Chips

1/2 tsp Peppermint Extract

8 Peppermint Candy Canes- crushed 

Directions:

1) Line a 12inch X 18inch pan with parchment paper.

2) Fill a saucepan with a small amount of water and place a glass bowl on top, large enough to sit on top, fill with the milk chocolate and heat on low slowly until the milk chocolate has melted.

3) Whilst on the heat add the peppermint extract and stir, work quickly  as the chocolate can start to thicken, remove from the heat and carefully pour the melted milk chocolate into the tin, using a spatula spread evenly and place in fridge for 30 minutes or until hardened.

4) Once the milk chocolate has hardened remove from fridge. 

5) Melt the white chocolate in the same way and pour over the top of the milk chocolate and use a spatula to spread evenly.

6) Top with the crushed candy canes and place in fridge for an hour.

7) Once hardened, break up and enjoy!
