Chocolate Peppermint Bark

This chocolate peppermint bark is super quick and easy to make. Don't pay a fortune for it in stores! Just make your own.

8 ounces milk or semi-sweet chocolate
8 ounces white chocolate
1/4 cup crushed peppermints, small and large pieces

• Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
• Fill two saucepans about 1/3 of the way full with water. 
• Bring to a rolling boil, then lower the temperature a bit so it's a low boil. 
• Place a heat safe glass bowl over top of each saucepan. 
• Be sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the top of the water.
• Place one kind of chocolate in each of the two bowls. 
• Keep the water hot so the chocolate can melt. 
• Once each chocolate is smooth, spoon them alternately onto the cookie sheet
• Continue to spoon onto the cookie sheet until all the chocolate is gone. 
• Take a butter knife and drag it slowly though the colours to create the marble effect. 
• Toss the peppermints over top. 
• Place bark in the fridge for an hour or two to allow it to set up. 
• Snap the pieces by hand, or cut with a knife.
