There’s nothing quite like the combination of rich chocolate and refreshing peppermint to lift your spirits! Here’s a snapshot of what we’re working with:
Ingredients
Gather these simple ingredients to make your peppermint bark:
- 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 cups of white chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon of peppermint extract
- 1/2 cup of crushed peppermint candies (or candy canes)
- 1/4 cup of sprinkles (optional, for an extra festive touch)
Instructions
Now, let’s break down the steps to make this scrumptious treat:
- Start by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper. This is where the magic will happen, so make sure it’s ready!
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Heat them in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
- Pour the melted semi-sweet chocolate onto the lined baking sheet and spread it out evenly, creating an even layer. Pop it into the fridge for about 15-20 minutes to set up.
- While that’s chilling, melt the white chocolate chips in a similar fashion. Once they’re all melty and smooth, remove the baking sheet from the fridge.
- Add peppermint extract to the white chocolate and stir well. Pour the white chocolate over the set semi-sweet chocolate, spreading it evenly!
- Now here’s where it gets fun! Sprinkle the crushed peppermint candies all over the top. If you’re feeling extra festive, toss on some sprinkles too!
- Let everything cool at room temperature for about an hour, or until totally set. Once it’s set, break it into pieces or cut it into squares.
And there you have it! This 5-Ingredient Peppermint Bark is ready to steal the show. Whether it’s for a holiday party, a gift, or just a tasty snack, you won’t want to miss out on this treat. Enjoy, y’all!
