I just had to share this. So easy to make and so delicious! Put it in a Christmas tin, and you have a quick and easy gift (or, eat it yourself!) The recipe calls for "peppermint oil," and I substituted real peppermint extract. It worked fine.

Thanks!

I made it for the first time this year. I gave about half of it away. The other half didn't last long, so I'll have to make some more for when my son is here.

I use 2 bags of white chocolate chips melted in microwave, one box (8) smashed candy canes and 1/2 t. peppermint extract. This covers a large cookie sheet and when broken apart will fill 3 or 4 of those little Chinese food take-out boxes that you can get in Christmas patterns. Really a nice "little something" to give at the holidays or as a hostess gift and it takes about 10 minutes to make one batch.

That's a good recipe. The one I posted makes a ton--well, two pounds.

Thank you :D:D:D

The candy canes will flavor your choc. quite well if you don't have the extract/oil. Peppermint is pretty potent!

been wanting to try this recipe and add pieces of pecans, wonder if that would work.

The bits of candy cane already make it crunch. It might work if you don't add too much.
