12 Weeks of Christmas Candy Week 6-White Chocolate Peppermint Bark!šš š» Comment RECIPE and Iāll send you my favorite Christmas Candy packaging and the instructions to make this yummy Christmas treat! The full recipe is below and on my blog www.edwardsfarmstead.com. White Chocolate Peppermint Bark *1-24oz white chocolate almond bark *12 candy canes or 30-40 starlight peppermints crushed *Unwrap 12 candy canes or 30-40 starlight mints and add to a gallon Ziplock bag. *Use the smooth end of a meat tenderizer mallet to crush the peppermint candy, leaving small bits of peppermint. Do not completely crush into a powder. *Set aside to add to melted chocolate. In a medium size microwavable bowl, add one package (24 oz or 1 1/2lb) white chocolate (almond) bark and microwave on high for 60 seconds. Stir bark and microwave another 30 sec until completely melted and smooth. *You can also use a double boiler to melt chocolate. *Add all of the crushed peppermint bits (except for a handful) into the melted chocolate and mix well. *Reserve the handful of bits to add to the top of the bark. *On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, pour peppermint bark onto parchment and spread evenly with a spatula. *Add the handful of peppermint bits to the top of the mixture prior to hardening. *Allow bark to harden completely before breaking into pieces. Bark can be refrigerated for 20-30 minutes to expedite the hardening process. *Break up pieces of bark by using a knife or break by hand. *Store in an airtight container until ready to serve. *Refrigeration not required for storage. *Enjoy! edwardsfarmstead christmascandy peppermintbark holidaygiftideas holidaybaking
