Chocolate Tree Bark

Ingredients
  • 12 ounces (about 2 cups) Semi sweet chocolate. 
  • 12 ounces (about 2 cups) white chocolate.
  • Crushed Peppermint candy canes
Equipment
  • A double boiler 
  • rolling pin
  • Ziploc bag
  • Cooking sheet
  • Tooth pick or spoons.
Prep
Unwrap the candy canes and place the candy canes in a large Ziploc bag and seal tightly. Use a rolling pin to roll/smash the candy canes until they are the size you desire. 
I liked making some powder, and some bigger pieces of candy cane. 
Prep a cooking sheet for the chocolate to go into.  Place the crushed candy canes at the bottom of the cooking sheet.
Directions
  1. Melt the dark chocolate in the double boiler. Wait until chocolate has fully melted than careful pour the chocolate onto the prepared cookie sheet, mix the dark chocolate with the candy canes and try and spreed it evenly.
  2. Melt the Milk chocolate in the double boiler, wait until the chocolate has fully melted than careful pour the chocolate in the cooking sheet. 
  3. Place the tray into the the refrigerator. Check on it until it's firm. 
  4.  Once the peppermint bark is completely set, break into small, uneven pieces by hand. It might be a bit hard.
  5. Enjoy!
