This is a great candy to make for Christmas
and Valentine's Day, too!
I usually crush up candy canes in my food processor,
but look what I found this year!
Crushed peppermint already done! Perfect!
The only other ingredient is almond bark!
Melt the bark in the microwave and add the peppermint.
Stir together and spread onto parchment paper.
After it has hardened, break into pieces!
Yum.

I haven't seen that crushed peppermint around here. What a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI found it at a craft store...not in the grocery. Sure saved a lot of time and hassle!
Deleteoh seriously you should not do this to me...this is a terrible addiction of mine...peppermint bark...i am glad its only out at the holidays...and i guess it just means i need to work harder to keep the pounds off the rest of the year...i will pretend i did not see a recipe...visual or otherwise...i may need to go to the store now though...ha.
ReplyDeleteit's an addiction of mine, too! hahaha...but of course, right? :)
DeleteLove the minty flavored goodies that come out at the holidays. Those mint M n M's are pretty yummy. Candy canes, real peppermint ones, are always good. And then there are the minty flavored cookies that I find so impossible to resist. If that wasn't enough there is now peppermint bark to contend with.
ReplyDelete(For some unknown reason Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream just popped into my mind...)
york peppermint patties are one of my all time favorites, too!
DeleteNever tried that
ReplyDeleteHere at my mat
But candy canes are always nasty to me
And you know what I think of that crummy valentine's day at my sea haha
I knew you wouldn't like
Deleteand would rather take a hike. :)
Oh how I wish I liked peppermint... It's the only taste my taste buds refuse to like. Well, maybe Kidney Pie...but try as I might...even again this year I tried some and it's just not for me.... Is that sad or what...because it looks wonderful, and I would make it for my peppermint loving family and friends.
ReplyDeleteIt's easy like the Microwave Peanut Brittle that I do love.
Pehaps I should mail you the peppermint bark candy bar I received in a Christmas package this year!!!
I think it's one of those flavors people either love or hate.
DeleteKidney Pie, huh...hmmmmm.....I don't even think I want to try that! haha.
Betsy I love peppermint and these look delicious:)
ReplyDeletethanks, gloria!
DeleteAre you still celebrating down there?
oh Betsy we finish the. celebration but still we have thing to make; today I notice Im so tired.my mom and dad will be here until the new year but that. is ok:)
DeleteOh, they are staying a good long, time! I know you're taking good care of them!
DeleteHA! yes they will be here until the New year:)
DeleteGotta love favorite recipes that only have two ingredients! I made some small white chocolate peppermint cheesecakes for gifts this year that turned out pretty well.
ReplyDeletewhite chocolate peppermint...now that sounds very yummy and festive! That would be nice for New Year's Eve, too!
DeleteHmmm, New Years Eve. Perfect, thanks for the idea! I'm always looking for an excuse to make a cheesecake :)
DeleteOk...no more candy, Betsy...
ReplyDeleteI assume you are one that stays slim, no matter what you eat...
AM I RIGHT??
It does look delicious, though!! haha..
Cheers!
Linda :o)
Actually, I agree with you...no more candy! haha. I'm sick of the sweets...I've overdosed big time. I need a celery stick and a glass of water. lol....
DeleteI will join you!!!
DeletePass the celery sticks, please!!!

Cheers!
Linda :o)
I actually think I could handle this! (o:
ReplyDeleteI used to love those boxes of candy from Fannie May that had peppermint and the green mints in them...I haven't thought about those in years.
Yes, I remember those, too! Now Mrs. Fields is known for her peppermint bark. It has a layer of chocolate on the bottom. :)
DeleteEnjoy !
ReplyDeletePierre
