Ingredients
  

White and Semi-Sweet Chocolate Layer
  • 12 ounces white chocolate coarsely chopped and divided
  • 1.5 teaspoons vegetable oil or coconut oil divided
  • 0.5 teaspoon peppermint extract divided
  • 6 ounces semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate coarsely chopped
  • 0.5 teaspoon vegetable oil or coconut oil
  • 0.25 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 2-3 pieces candy canes crushed, 24-36g total

Equipment

  • Microwave
  • 8-inch square baking pan
  • Parchment paper
  • heatproof bowls
  • Spatula

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line an 8-inch or 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  2. Melt 6 ounces of white chocolate with 1/2 teaspoon of oil in a heatproof bowl in the microwave in 20-second increments until smooth. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon of peppermint extract and pour into the prepared pan, spreading evenly. Refrigerate for 10-15 minutes until almost set.
  3. In a clean bowl, melt 6 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate with 1/2 teaspoon of oil using the same microwave method. Stir in remaining 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract, pour over the chilled white chocolate layer, and spread smoothly. Return to refrigerator for another 10-15 minutes.
  4. Melt remaining white chocolate with the last 1/2 teaspoon of oil, pour over the semi-sweet chocolate, and spread uniformly.
  5. Sprinkle crushed candy canes over the top white chocolate layer while it is still soft.
  6. Refrigerate until fully set, about 1 hour. Remove from pan by peeling off the parchment or foil. Break or cut into pieces.
  7. If the bark has chilled for more than 3–4 hours, let it come to room temperature for 10–15 minutes before breaking.
