Peppermint Bark

Yep, another Christmas recipe. I don't think I could ever get sick of 'em! This one comes courtesy of my wonderful, awesome, amazing sister. Don't let the measly two ingredients fool you. Once you pop one piece of this deliciousness into your mouth, you'll want to devour the whole batch!

Peppermint Bark
  
1 bag white chocolate chips
6-10 candy canes (to taste)
Place desired amount of candy canes (or you could use just peppermints) into a Ziplock bag and crush well. Melt chocolate chips (and 1 Tbsp oil, if desired... sometimes this helps white chocolate not seize up) in microwave for 1 minute. Stir, and keep melting in 15-second increments until smooth. Place a sieve over melted chocolate and add candy canes. Shake the sieve. This allows only the powder to fall into the chocolate. Add as much or as little as you want, mix well. Pour peppermint chocolate onto foil-lined cookie sheet and spread relatively thin. Sprinkle top with larger candy pieces. Let set and cool.

Voila! Tasty, festive goodness. Merry Christmas!
