Ingredients
12 oz 70% dark chocolate
6 oz white chocolate
2 large candy canes, crushed
Instructions
- Melt dark chocolate and white chocolate separately using a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals. If microwaving, melt to about 85% and stir until smooth.
- Line a baking pan with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- Spread dark chocolate evenly into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick.
- Add spoonfuls of melted white chocolate on top.
- Use a toothpick to swirl the chocolates together for a marbled effect.
- Sprinkle crushed candy canes evenly over the top.
- Refrigerate until firm, then cut into pieces with a sharp knife.
Notes
- Use milk chocolate instead of dark for a sweeter version.
- Add a few drops of peppermint extract for stronger mint flavor.
- Swap candy canes for nuts, pretzels, or cookies.
- For holiday flair, drizzle with red or green candy melts.
- Make layered bark by partially setting the dark chocolate before swirling in white chocolate.
