Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring between each until smooth. Stir in the peppermint extract.
Spread the melted semi-sweet chocolate evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Chill in the refrigerator until set, about 20 minutes.
Melt the white chocolate chips using the same method, then spread over the set semi-sweet chocolate layer.
Sprinkle the crushed candy canes over the white chocolate layer, lightly pressing them in.
Chill in the refrigerator until completely set, about 1 hour. Once set, break the bark into pieces and store in an airtight container.
Variations & Tips
For a twist, try using dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet for a richer flavor. You can also experiment with different types of crushed candies or even add a sprinkle of sea salt for a sweet-savory surprise. If you’re feeling creative, drizzle the finished bark with a little melted white or dark chocolate for an extra decorative touch.
