Ingredients
- 300 grams dark chocolate chips
- 300 grams white chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 2 drops green food coloring
- 50 grams crushed peppermint candies or candy canes
Directions
Step 1
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Step 2
Melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring between each cycle until smooth and fully melted.
Step 3
Pour the melted dark chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it evenly into a thin layer using an offset spatula. Place the tray in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set slightly.
Step 4
Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring until smooth. Once melted, stir in the peppermint extract and green food coloring until the color is evenly distributed.
Step 5
Pour the mint-infused white chocolate over the dark chocolate layer and gently spread it out using an offset spatula to cover the dark chocolate completely.
Step 6
Sprinkle the top with the crushed peppermint candies or candy canes, pressing them lightly into the white chocolate to ensure they stick.
Step 7
Allow the bark to set completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
Step 8
Once fully set, break the bark into irregular pieces using your hands or a kitchen knife.
Step 9
Store the mint chocolate bark in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 10 days, or in the refrigerator for a longer shelf life.
