Peppermint Bark

Ingredients

10 oz. (1 bag) chocolate chips (dark, milk or semi-sweet)
5 oz. (1/2 bag) white chocolate chips
4 candy canes (crushed)

Directions

Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Place candy canes in a freezer bag and crush with a meat pounder or other heavy object. Melt dark chocolate (in the microwave or using a double boiler). Pour chocolate onto lined baking sheet, using a spatula to spread evenly. Melt white chocolate (either in microwave or double boiler). Spoon white chocolate over dark chocolate. Drag a toothpick from one end of the baking sheet to the other and then drag a toothpick across the baking sheet, creating a swirl pattern. Sprinkle crushed candy canes over the chocolate, making sure to press down the larger pieces into the chocolate. Set aside to cool (about 30 minutes). When the bark is set, use your hands to break apart into random pieces. Enjoy!
