Chocolate Peppermint Bark-Christmas

By dcarriger56

Ingredients

• 12 12 12 ounces quality white chocolate
• 12 12 12 ounces quality dark chocolate
• 1/2 1/2 1/2 crushed peppermint candy

Preparation

Step 1

Line a 9x12 pan with parchment paper

Melt the dark chocolate ( use the method you prefer,either double broiler, or microwave- cook 30 seconds in best-proof bowl,stir and repeat until you have a smooth consistency.
Pour The melted dark chocolate on the parchment paper, spread the chocolate out until it is about 1/3 inch thick. You can do this by hitting the pan on the countertop repeatedly, or maybe you could use a spatula to spread the chocolate.
Melt the white chocolate, using the steps above; After the chocolate is smooth,pour it on the top of dark chocolate - trying to make the layers the same thickness. ( its best to do this step while the white chocolate is still very soft— I’ve had them separate when I broke them into pieces. I think the layers “stick” together better if the white. Chocolate has not hardened).
Unwrap the star lite mints, or peppermint soy your choice and put them into a heavy-duty ziplock bag. Using a hammer or meat tenderizer - crush the mints then,while the white chocolate is still melted sprinkle on top.
Let the Chocolate harden in refrigerator for 2 hours, then break the candy into pieces. This needs to be stored in refrigerator if you live in a warm/humidity climate.
