Ingredients
  

12 oz dark chocolate chips (60-70% cacao)

1 cup white chocolate chips

1 teaspoon peppermint extract

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (for topping)

1/4 cup crushed peppermint candies (for topping)

Sea salt (optional, for sprinkling)

Instructions
 

Melt the Dark Chocolate:

    In a heatproof bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips using a double boiler method. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth. Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring until fully melted.

      Prepare the Baking Sheet:

        Line a baking sheet (approximately 11x17 inches) with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, allowing some overhang for easy removal later.

          Spread the Dark Chocolate:

            Pour the melted dark chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread it out evenly, creating a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Place it in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes until slightly set but not completely hard.

              Melt the White Chocolate:

                In a separate heatproof bowl, repeat the melting process with the white chocolate chips. Once melted and smooth, mix in the peppermint extract for that refreshing minty flavor.

                  Swirl the White Chocolate:

                    Remove the dark chocolate layer from the refrigerator. Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the dark chocolate layer, and use a toothpick or a skewer to swirl them together, creating a marbled effect.

                      Add the Toppings:

                        Immediately sprinkle the mini chocolate chips and crushed peppermint candies over the top of the bark. If desired, add a pinch of sea salt for a sweet and salty flavor contrast.

                          Set the Bark:

                            Return the baking sheet to the refrigerator for another 30-45 minutes, or until the bark is completely set and firm.

                              Break into Pieces:

                                Once set, remove the baking sheet from the refrigerator. Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the bark from the baking sheet. Break or cut it into pieces of your desired size.

                                  Store and Enjoy:

                                    Store the Cool Mint Chocolate Chip Bark in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks (if it lasts that long!). Enjoy this delightful treat as a dessert or a refreshing snack.
