How to Make White Chocolate And Peppermint Cookie Brittle

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup (2 sticks) melted unsalted butter, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup packed brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Gradually stir in the dry ingredients (flour mixture) until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Stir in 1 cup chopped white chocolate and 1/2 cup crushed peppermint candies.
  6. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Press the dough into a 14x8-inch rectangle, about 3/8 inch thick.
  8. Bake for 15-16 minutes, or until the top is firm and dark golden brown. Start checking at 12 minutes to prevent burning.
  9. Let cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes.
  10. Transfer the cookie to a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. In a double boiler (or heat-safe bowl set over a pan of simmering water), melt the remaining white chocolate until smooth and creamy.
  12. Drizzle about half of the melted white chocolate in thin lines over the cooled cookie.
  13. Sprinkle the remaining crushed peppermint candies over the chocolate.
  14. Drizzle the remaining melted white chocolate over the top.
  15. Let stand until the white chocolate sets completely, about 1 hour.
  16. Break the cookie into irregular 2- to 3-inch pieces.
