Ingredients
  

For the Bark
  • 7 ounces white chocolate, coarsely chopped Forms the perfect base for your bark.
  • 1 ounce green candy melts Adds vibrant color.
  • 1/4 teaspoon canola or vegetable oil Helps achieve a silky consistency.
  • 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract Imparts refreshing mint flavor.
  • 8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, coarsely chopped Balances the sweetness of the white chocolate.
  • 1/3 cup chopped Andes mints Optional for extra minty goodness.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. Melt the white chocolate and green candy melts in a double boiler or microwave, stirring every 20 seconds. Stir in canola oil and peppermint extract.
  3. Melt the semi-sweet chocolate using the same method, then pour it onto the prepared baking sheet and spread into a rectangle.
  4. Drizzle the melted white chocolate mixture over the semi-sweet chocolate and swirl using a toothpick or knife.
  5. If using, sprinkle chopped Andes mints on top.
  6. Allow the bark to set at room temperature for 45 minutes or refrigerate to speed up the process.
  7. Once hardened, break into pieces.

Notes

Ensure chocolate doesn't overheat; experiment with colored candy melts for different occasions. Adding nuts or dried fruit can enhance texture.
