Directions

1. Crush candy canes

   Place unwrapped candy canes in a sealable plastic bag and gently crush using a rolling pin until candy is broken into small pieces and set aside.

2. Separate chocolate chips

   Place 1 cup each of milk/dark chocolate chips in a heat-proof glass or ceramic bowl, and 1 cup of white chips in another heat-proof glass or ceramic bowl. Reserve the additional half cups separately.

3. Line baking sheet

   Line a large baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.

4. Create double boiler

   Create a double boiler by heating a few inches of water in a pot and bringing it to a simmer over low heat.

5. Melt chocolate chips

   Place the bowl of milk/dark chocolate chips over the water and stir slowly with a rubber spatula until smooth and the chocolate has melted completely. Remove the bowl using a kitchen towel or oven mitt, and stir in the remaining half cup of milk/dark chocolate chips until smooth.

6. Melt white chocolate chips

   Add additional water (if needed) to the pot and place the bowl of white chocolate chips over simmering water. Using a clean spatula, repeat step 5 with white chocolate.

7. Spread melted chocolate onto sheet

   Spread milk/dark chocolate mixture into an even layer over parchment paper using the back of a spoon or a spatula.

8. Mix white and dark chocolate chips

   Once the white chocolate is melted, dollop a few spoonsful over the milk/dark chocolate.

9. Swirl the chocolate

   Swirl the white chocolate into the milk/dark chocolate using a wooden chopstick or toothpick.

10. Sprinkle crushed candy canes

    When you like the way it looks, sprinkle the crushed candy canes on top.

11. Chill

    Place the sheet in your refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour.
