Equipment

  • 9x13 Cookie Sheet
  • 1 parchment paper
  • 1 Microwave safe bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 9 oz Enjoy Life Dark Chocolate Chips
  • 6 Candy Canes 6 large or 10-12 small candy canes
  • 1/2 tps Peppermint Extra (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Prepare a 9x13 cookie sheet with parchment paper
  • Crush the candy canes. Put the candy canes in a freezer bag. I use a rolling pin or a mallet to crush the candles into tiny pieces. You don’t need to crush them into a powder. Once crushed, I set them aside.
  • Pour your 9 oz bag of Enjoy Life dark chocolate chips(or chips of your choice) into a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 30 second intervals, stirring in between until all the chips are completely melted.
  • Stir in all but about 2 tbsp worth of the crushed candy canes into the melted chocolate chips. Add the optional peppermint extract and stir all together.
  • Pour the melted chocolate mixture onto the prepared cookie sheet. Hold the cookie sheet and parchment paper, and gently move the pan in all directions until the chocolate spreads evenly across the pan.
  • Top with the remaining 2 tbsp of crushed candy canes.
  • Place into the refrigerator for 20 minutes or until the chocolate is hardened.
  • Once hardened break into large pieces and Enjoy!!
