Dark Chocolate Peppermint Bark
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. + chilling
YIELD: 1-1/2 pounds.
Classic dark chocolate peppermint bark gets a new look by swirling dark and white chocolate together. You can also layer them if you wish. Be sure to use real peppermint oil (not extract) so your chocolate won't seize into a big clump. —
