Ingredients

  • 2 cups semi sweet chocolate morsels
  • 2 cups white chocolate morsels
  • ¼ teaspoon peppermint extract or ⅛ teaspoon in each melted chocolate
  • crushed peppermint candies

Instructions

  • Pour the semi sweet morsels and the white chocolate morsels into separate microwaveable bowls
  • Melt each bowl of chocolates separately starting at 30 seconds and then at 15-second increments, stirring frequently until fully melted and smooth. Or follow directions on bag.
  • Add the peppermint extract to one of the melted chocolates, and stir well. Or add ⅛ to each bowl of chocolate
  • Pour both chocolates onto a wax-paper lined baking sheet, spread out with spatula, next to each other, allow to cool just slightly
  • Swirl together with sharp knife or toothpick. Bark should be about ⅛ inch thick. Sprinkle top with crushed peppermint candies, and place in refrigerator until solid.
  • Remove from fridge, and break apart or cut with sharp knife. Store in fridge.

Notes

Use room temperature peppermint extract.
If you want chocolate layers, spread dark chocolate on bottom, and pour white chocolate over when dark chocolate is firm but not cool yet.
