Peppermint Bark

This my friends, is soooooo delicious. And once again, very easy! Are you seeing a pattern with me? I strive for easiness when it comes to cooking/baking because I love to cook but I don't have tons of time! This is a fun treat to give away in a Christmas Basket to a neighbor or friend. Or I gave it to the gals I visit teach this year! Yum! If you don't have a double broiler then just take a look at my make-shift double broiler, and it works perfectly! Just put an 8x8 glass pan over a pot of boiling water and your set!

12 oz white chocolate Bakers squares (You can use chips if in a crunch)

12 oz semi sweet chocolate Bakers squares

2 tsp vegetable oil (or flavorless oil) - divided

1/4 tsp peppermint extract (it will still taste good without it, but better with)

4 Crushed Candy canes (a guess)

Start with putting your brown chocolate in the "double broiler", with 1 tsp of oil and let it slowly melt, stirring occasionally. Once completely melted pour into a lined with parchment paper 9x13 cake pan, and stick in the freezer for 10 min or until hardened. Repeat with the white chocolate and 1 tsp of oil after you have given the brown chocolate enough time to harden. But after the white chocolate is completely melted take off of the heat and let it cool down to about room temperature. Then stir in your peppermint extract and about 1/3 of your candy canes. Pour over your brown chocolate then sprinkle the rest of your candy canes and lightly press down on them so that they get stuck in the white chocolate. Put in the freezer again and let harden, then take out and break apart! I like to keep mine in the refrigerator when I don't have them out for display!
