As a follow up to my post on Tuesday on how to make
Candy Cane Vodka, I am posting my Easy Peasy recipe on how to make Candy Cane Bark...yummy!
What you will need to make approximately 6 boxes of Candy Cane Bark:
4 packages of white chocolate chips
24 Candy Canes
6 Festive Boxes
Clear Wrap
|
Unwrap 24 Candy Canes & place into a large Ziploc baggie |
|
Crush with a kitchen mallet |
|
Line a large cookie sheet with wax paper |
|
Place all the white chocolate chips in a bowl and microwave on 50% heat
to melt, checking every minute and stirring. |
|
Place crushed Candy Cane's in a colander and shake over a bowl.
Put the shifted Candy Cane "dust" to the side... |
|
Add the larger pieces to the melted chocolate and stir. |
|
Spread onto the lined cookie sheet ( Be sure to spread it so it is thin). |
|
Grab that Candy Cane "dust" and shake it on top of the Bark...press down lightly with the
back of a spoon. Place in freezer or fridge for 1/2-1 hour to "set". |
|
Peel Bark off the wax paper and break into small pieces. |
|
Line your boxes with clear wrap and place your yummy Candy Cane Bark inside. |
|
Cover...DONE! (I told you that it was Easy Peasy!) |
|
For an EXTRA SPECIAL GIFT...
Add to the Candy Cane Vodka and wrap in cellophane & attach a ribbon! |

I love the idea of using the candy cane "dust" like that! And those are truly beautiful boxes. :)
ReplyDeleteI bought some gorgeous ribbon this past week to wrap our holiday goodies...that's definitely part of the fun!
You are soooo tempting me to get domestic diva this Christmas ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love the dust too!! You're so crafty.
ReplyDeleteAnd can I just say that it kills me that you are going to be flying over me for Christmas. I just can't tell you....
Thanks! I've always wanted to know how to make that stuff. You are fabulous!!! I'm totally using your recipe this year. :)
ReplyDeleteOkay, okay, I will try AGAIN to make this stuff. You make it look so easy but my chocolate just doesn't melt. I'll go look for choc chips tomorrow and try again - you've got to love a recipe where you can pound your frustrations away :)
ReplyDeletePS look out... I posted something your way today.
