I’m convinced that a holiday party isn’t a party without chocolate. So I thought I’d share this super EASY and quick version of a holiday classic. All you need is a few ingredients and about five minutes to whip it up. This is even a recipe that the kiddos could easily and safely do on their own.
Peppermint Bark (just three ingredients!)
Ingredients
- 1 bag Enjoy Life Mini Chocolate Chips
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil
- 2-3 candy canes preferably ones made without high fructose corn syrup and artificial dyes
- some drops of peppermint oil to the melted chocolate to give it an extra minty kick optional
Instructions
- Line a small baking pan or cookie sheet with parchment paper. Unwrap candy canes and put inside a ziploc bag. Using a rubber mallet or rolling pin, crush the candy canes until it is broken up into small chunks.
- Using a double boiler or microwave, combine entire bag of chocolate chips and coconut oil. Slowly melt down the chocolate and oil, stirring frequently (every 15-20 seconds if using microwave). When chocolate is melted and a smooth consistency, pour it onto the lined baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread the chocolate so that it’s an even thickness. Sprinkle crushed candy cane bits over the melted chocolate.
- Place in freezer for about 10 minutes. Break pieces of the peppermint bark into desired sizes. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
Enjoy
