Easy Holiday Treat
Its December and its time to indulge in some peppermint candy canes!I have come across loads of 'bark' recipes around this time of year.
And so far I managed to resist making them for just one reason, white chocolate!
I used to be a fan of white chocolate, but of late, I find white chocolate is just a little too sweet for my liking.
Blame it on the tastebud that has changed as I aged!!
This year, I brave myself and am sharing this homemade White Chocolate Peppermint Bark!

What is Peppermint Bark?
Peppermint bark is a chocolate confectionary consists of candy canes and chocolates.
The original peppermint bark would have a layer of dark chocolate with a layer of white chocolate on top, and finish off with sprinkling crushed candy canes on top of white chocolate layer.
But I am all so NOT into originals :P
Hence my White Chocolate Peppermint Bark is here :D.

It is very simple.All you need is a packet of candy canes, white chocolate, pistachios and walnuts.
And the best part is ... it is a NO BAKE treat!!
I have typed out steps by steps on HOW to make this White Chocolate Peppermint Bark in the recipe card below.
The most important part of the steps is to temper chocolate!!
1. Tempering white chocolate I used bain marie method or double boil method, as I am comfortable with this method.
You can opt to use microwave.
2. Add toppings This is the easy part.
Just sprinkle crushed peppermint candy canes, pistachios and walnuts
3. Refrigerate Refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or 4 or forever, if you are experiencing a hot Australian summer)
>4. SNAP!! This is the fun part!

If you are in any part of the world that is not having cold wintry weather, I suggest to store these White Chocolate Peppermint Bark in either your refrigerator or freezer.
