What a fun and festive variation on traditional Peppermint Bark. I found this silicone Wilton Snowflake mold on Amazon.
Recipe: adapted from Baked by Rachel
10 oz. dark chocolate
10 oz. white chocolate
6 peppermint candy canes
1/2 t. peppermint flavor
Yield: 24 Snowflakes
Place candy canes in a zip lock bag. Using a hammer or mallet and a cutting board, smash the canes into small pieces, but do not pulverize.
Melt dark chocolate using the tempering method (see video below).
Stir 1/4 teaspoon peppermint flavor into the tempered chocolate. Using a small spoon, fill the silicone molds. I found it helpful to pour the chocolate into the center of the snowflake and with the aid of a toothpick, spread the chocolate into the cavities. Work quickly before the chocolate hardens.
These are the best kind of snowflakes….
