Peppermint Bark (holiday baking recipe #5)

I started this recipe as trying a new one based on williams-sonoma peppermint bark; which had two layers a chocolate later and a white chocolate layer.  I actually attempted this twice - the first time it was way too thick and impossible to cut.  Second time I made it - it just kept separating and I just kept the top white chocolate/pepperminty later to use - it was still really delicious!!  Here's the modified recipe!

1 1/2 bags of white chocolate chips
1 1/2 tsp. peppermint extract
Crushed candy canes

Prepare a 9x13" glass baking pan with foil, make sure they cover the sides too!  Spray foil with cooking spray.

Melt white chocolate chips in the microwave.  Careful to monitor this so you don't burn the chips, i think it takes about a minute to 90 seconds. Stir until smooth and add peppermint extract.  Mix well and smooth - pour immediately into the baking pan and top with crushed peppermint. Cool in the fridge to help it set up.  Cut and break apart as you would like.
