Peppermint Bark Candy

For all of you who know me, I hardly ever make sweets. (That is why there are bakeries!) I happened to find this extremely easy recipe for white chocolate peppermint bark candy. I thought it would look festive for Christmas! I usually make savory dishes. but this one caught my eye. 2 cups white chocolate chips, 1 cup crushed peppermint. You melt the chocolate in the microwave for a minute or two. Stirring a few times. Add 1/2 of the peppermint to the white chocolate. Spread on a cookie sheet that has been lined with parchment paper and sprayed with cooking spray. Top with the remaining 1/2 crushed peppermint. Refrigerate for a few hours. Break into pieces. ( The recipe came from a magazine, but I cannot remember which one.)

I think the next time I make this , I will try milk chocolate and top it with dried fruit. I have seen Ina Garten do something like that in the past. I may have found a new candy recipe that looks impressive, but is so simple. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!
