Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 cup white chocolate chips
- 1.25 cup sweetened condensed milk divided between layers
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter divided
- 1 tsp peppermint extract
- 0.5 tsp vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup crushed candy canes divided; save some for topping
- 0.13 tsp fine sea salt
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment, leaving overhang.
- Melt semi-sweet chips, half the condensed milk, and 1 tbsp butter over low heat or in short microwave bursts.
- Stir in vanilla and a pinch of salt until glossy.
- Spread the chocolate layer evenly in the pan and chill 10 minutes to slightly set.
- Melt white chips with remaining condensed milk and 1 tbsp butter until smooth.
- Stir in peppermint extract and fold in half of the crushed candy canes.
- Spread the white layer over the chocolate. Sprinkle on remaining candy canes and press lightly.
- Chill until firm, about 2 hours. Lift out and cut into small squares.
Notes
Try swirling a teaspoon of espresso powder into the chocolate layer for a mocha twist, or add a handful of mini marshmallows on top before chilling. Store tightly covered in the fridge for up to 1 week or freeze up to 2 months; serve slightly chilled for clean cuts.
