Ingredients

• 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup white chocolate chips
• 1 cup peppermint candies or candy canes
• 2 tablespoons sprinkles (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

Place the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until completely melted and smooth.

Step 3

Pour the melted semi-sweet chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet and use a spatula to spread it into an even layer, about 1/4-inch thick.

Step 4

Place the white chocolate chips in a separate microwave-safe bowl and melt them using the same method as the semi-sweet chocolate.

Step 5

Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the semi-sweet chocolate layer in a zig-zag pattern. Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the two chocolate layers together, creating a marbled effect.

Step 6

Put the peppermint candies or candy canes into a sealed ziplock bag. Use a rolling pin or heavy object to crush them into small pieces.

Step 7

Sprinkle the crushed peppermint candies evenly over the surface of the chocolate. If using sprinkles, add them now for extra decoration.

Step 8

Allow the chocolate bark to set at room temperature for 1-2 hours, or place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to speed up the process.

Step 9

Once fully hardened, break the bark into irregular pieces using your hands.

Step 10

Store the candy bark in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
