Recipe: Peppermint Bark





Hi Fashion Dolls!

Happy Hump Day! I love, love, love the holiday season and what I love just as much as shopping for goodies for my family and friends.......... is eating!!!! And not just eating anything, but eating sweets! I love sweets: chocolate, cupcakes, ice cream........you name it! I wanted to post one of my favorite recipes for this time of year, which feeds my sweet tooth time and time again, and that's Peppermint Bark. One of my good friends taught my how to make this and it tastes delicious and it's super easy to make. Even with my minimal cooking skills, I'm able to impress all my friends and family with this sweet treat every year.


Ingredients

  • Crushed candy canes
  • 2 bars of white chocolate and/or dark chocolate 
  • Peppermint extract 

Directions

Place candy canes in a plastic bag and hammer into dime-sized chunks or smaller. 
Melt the chocolate in a sauce pan. 
Combine candy cane chunks with chocolate (add peppermint flavoring at this point) 
Pour mixture onto a cookie sheet layered with parchment paper.
Place in the refrigerator for 45 minutes or until firm. Remove from cookie sheet and break into pieces (like peanut brittle.)

It should look something like this!


They sell peppermint bark everywhere, but it truly is easy to make yourself. Give it a try and let me know how it comes out. And send me some while you're at it! LOL just kidding


Happy Holidays Dolls!
