How to Make Mccormick's Peppermint Bark
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper (for easier removal than foil).
- In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt 12 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate baking pieces, stirring frequently until smooth.
- Place 1 cup of unwrapped peppermint candies in a ziploc bag and crush using a rolling pin or hammer until finely crushed. Set aside.
- Once the chocolate is almost completely melted, remove from heat.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon of McCormick's Pure Peppermint Extract.
- Gently stir until the extract is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
- Spread the chocolate mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet to a 1/4-inch thickness using a metal spatula.
- (Optional) Add 2-3 drops of red food coloring, swirling gently with a wooden skewer for a marbled effect.
- Sprinkle the crushed peppermint candies evenly over the chocolate layer. Gently press them into the chocolate with the spatula.
- Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely set.
- Once set, break the bark into pieces.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
