10Peppermint candy canes
8ozDark chocolate bar
Instructions
Place the hard candy canes inside of a baggie, and with a mallet or rolling pin, smash the candy canes, leaving some of them chunky for the topping.
In a microwave bowl, melt the chocolate in 30-second intervals, stopping to stir until melted, about 90-seconds total, or melt on top of the stove.
Pour the smashed candy canes (reserving 2 tablespoons for the top), into the melted chocolate, stir, and pour onto a parchment paper (or silicone), lined baking sheet. Sprinkle the remaining chunks of candy cane on top.
Chill in the fridge for 20-minutes, break into bark and store in the fridge until ready to serve.
