Peppermint Brittle

I used white chocolate and peppermint chocolate and added marshmallows on top and green and red sprinkles. I didn’t have peppermint candy canes so I used raspberry flavored candy canes

I love this recipe! So easy to make and it's a delicious treat that everyone loves. The first time I made it with just white chocolate, the second time I made it when semi-sweet dark chocolate as the first layer, with the white chocolate on top. Both turned out fantastic and my family has eaten it all up already!

Someone made similar brittle/barks at a party and I really loved it so tried this recipe. I'm not sure what's different but I didn't care about this as much. Maybe different brand of chocolate or candy? I can't pin point exactly what but I guess I have to experiment with different brands of candies or try different recipes which call for peppermint extract or something. It was super easy to make and since it was very cold outside, I just left the pan out for 10-15 min and it was done. My husband liked it very much and said it's his new favorite.

I normally make peppermint patties and I've done a huge huge batch this year. Decided to make this recipe but make them thick, because I had leftover candy canes and almond bark. It worked out with the leftovers I had and set up quickly. Peppermint anything is great in my house.

Surprisingly delicious! Based on other recommendations I did add a teaspoon of peppermint extract to the melted almond bark. Next time I will add crushed peppermint candies to the bark before letting it harden. Also, when you add the crushed peppermint on top of the spread out bark you need to smush it into the bark. If not, it won't stick. It didn't harden as well as I would have liked it to. Next time I may add a bit of cornstrach to see if that will help. All-in-all a great dessert! I will make again!

As easy as it gets. I split the recipe and made half all white chocolate and the second half with a dark chocolate layer on the bottom. This makes perfect Christmas gifts.
