Peppermint Bark


1 and 1/2 bag dark chocolate chips
1 and 1/2 bag white chocolate chips
1/2 or 3/4 teaspoon peppermint extract (depending on how strong you want it) I like 3/4 tsp
10 crushed candy canes

Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Line a 13 x 9 pan with foil.
Spread out the dark chocolate chips over the foil and put in oven until melted.
Spread out the melted chips into an even layer.
Cool in the fridge while making the next layer.
Crush the candy canes so they are ready.
Using a double boiler, melt the white chocolate chips, stirring until smooth. Add in the peppermint extract.
Quickly pour the melted white chocolate mixture onto the dark chocolate layer that was in the fridge.
Top with the crushed candy canes.
Put back into the fridge until set.
Break into pieces.

Once set, I like to put it into a large ziploc type bag and bang it against the counter to break it.
