Decadent Chocolate Peppermint Bark: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 oz dark chocolate (or semi-sweet chocolate)
  • 12 oz white chocolate
  • 1 tsp peppermint extract
  • 1 cup crushed peppermint candies or candy canes
  • Sea salt (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Creating Decadent Chocolate Peppermint Bark is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, making sure it’s flat and smooth.
  3. Melt Dark Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until fully melted and smooth.
  4. Add Peppermint Extract: Once melted, stir in the peppermint extract to enhance the flavor.
  5. Spread Dark Chocolate: Pour the melted dark chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it evenly with a spatula to about 1/4 inch thick.
  6. Chill: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.
  7. Melt White Chocolate: Meanwhile, melt the white chocolate in the same manner as the dark chocolate until smooth.
  8. Layer White Chocolate: Once the dark chocolate is set, pour the melted white chocolate over the dark layer, spreading it evenly.
  9. Sprinkle Peppermint: Immediately sprinkle the crushed peppermint candies over the white chocolate layer, pressing them in gently.
  10. Chill Again: Return to the refrigerator for another 15-30 minutes, or until the entire bark is fully set.
  11. Break into Pieces: Once set, remove from the refrigerator and break the bark into irregular pieces.
  12. Garnish (Optional): If desired, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the bark for an added touch of flavor.
