Peppermint Bark!





I got this recipe from my sister, and I LOVE it! Elijah enjoys helping me make it, too. I don't have a kitchen mallet, so we just use a hammer. I also don't have a double boiler, but I always just make it in a pot. Anyone who's going to the party tomorrow, expect to be able to try this! We have some in the fridge right now, cooling for tomorrow. :)




Peppermint Bark


2 bags white chocolate chips

12 lg. candy canes

couple drops peppermint oil


Line baking sheet with wax paper & set aside. Put 11 candy canes in a ziplock & pound with kitchen mallet, breaking into many pieces. Set aside & repeat with remaining candy cane. Melt chocolate in a double boiler, stirring constantly until melted (important not to overcook!). Stir in peppermint oil & 11 crushed candy canes. Remove from heat & pour onto prepared baking sheet, spreading evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle the remaining candy cane on top, pressing in slightly to adhere to the chocolate. Refrigerate until firm. Break into pieces. Stir in airtight container in fridge. Enjoy! :)
