Ingredients
  

For the Bark
  • 8 oz Dark chocolate Choose high-quality chocolate for a rich flavor.
  • 1 tsp Peppermint extract Just a few drops will infuse your bark with minty taste.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Gather Ingredients: Start by collecting all your ingredients including high-quality dark chocolate, peppermint extract, and crushed mint candies.
  2. Melt the Chocolate: Place your chopped dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat it in 30-second intervals, stirring well until it's completely melted and silky smooth.
  3. Add Peppermint Flavor: Once the chocolate is melted, stir in a few drops of peppermint extract. Taste a tiny bit to adjust the flavor.
  4. Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, ensuring it covers the entire surface for easy removal later on.
  5. Pour and Spread: Pour the melted chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet, using a spatula to spread it evenly into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick.
  6. Sprinkle Toppings: While the chocolate is still warm, generously sprinkle crushed mint candies over the top. Press them lightly into the chocolate.
  7. Chill to Set: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate is firm to the touch.
  8. Break into Pieces: Once set, remove from the fridge and gently break into irregular pieces.
