About this recipe

I only post recipes that I have tried and verified and are good to my taste — all taste may vary.

Seeding melted chocolate with unmelted pieces gives a snap and shine without full tempering.

Ingredients

Method

  1. 01

    Melt two-thirds of the dark chocolate gently, then stir in the rest until smooth (this keeps it glossy). Spread on a parchment-lined sheet; chill 15 minutes.

  2. 02

    Melt white chocolate the same way, stir in peppermint and spread over.

  3. 03

    Scatter candy canes and press lightly.

  4. 04

    Chill until set, then break into pieces.
