Holiday Peppermint Bark

Directions

1. 1
   Place wax paper on a large sheet pan and set aside on the countertop. Bring a pot half-filled with water to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer and place a glass bowl on top. Make sure the bottom of the glass bowl is not touching the water. Place dark chocolate in the bowl and melt, stirring occasionally until the mixture becomes very smooth. Remove chocolate from the heat and pour onto the prepared wax paper. Spread evenly and refrigerate for 20 minutes or until set.
2. 2
   While the first layer sets, bring the same pot of water to a boil and reduce heat to simmer. Place the white chocolate pieces in the glass bowl and set on top of the pot to heat. Stir until completely melted and set aside to cool.
3. 3
   Meanwhile, place the peppermint candies in a food processor and pulse 5-10 times or until broken into tiny pieces. Set aside.
4. 4
   Remove dark chocolate from the refrigerator. Pour cooled white chocolate over top and smooth out with a spatula. Sprinkle with peppermint candy pieces, gently pressing them into the chocolate so they stick. Place the sheet back in the fridge to harden for another 20 minutes. Break apart and serve.
