Snoopy Peppermint Bark Recipe

Introduction

Snoopy Peppermint Bark is a festive and fun treat perfect for the holiday season. Layers of creamy milk and white chocolate are infused with peppermint flavor and topped with delightful candies and cookies, making it both delicious and visually appealing.

Ingredients

• 16 oz. chopped milk chocolate, milk chocolate candy melts, or milk chocolate chips
• 16 oz. chopped white chocolate, white candy melts, or white chocolate chips
• 1/4 tsp peppermint extract
• Pepperidge Farm Snoopy Goldfish Peppermint Cocoa Grahams
• Crushed candy canes
• Tiny marshmallow bits
• Peppermint Andes mint bits
• Peppermint mini marshmallows
• Assorted Christmas sprinkles

Instructions

1. Step 1: Melt the milk chocolate in the microwave or over a double boiler according to package instructions until smooth and creamy. Stir in 1/4 tsp peppermint extract. Spread the milk chocolate evenly on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Let it sit until it is soft and tacky, but not fully set.
2. Step 2: Melt the white chocolate and spread it over the milk chocolate layer while it is still soft and tacky. This ensures the layers adhere when broken into pieces.
3. Step 3: Immediately sprinkle the white chocolate layer with Snoopy Goldfish cookies, crushed candy canes, tiny marshmallow bits, peppermint Andes mint bits, mini peppermint marshmallows, and assorted Christmas sprinkles.
4. Step 4: Allow the bark to set for about an hour or until completely hardened. Once set, break into pieces and enjoy.

Tips & Variations

• For a smoother melt, chop the chocolate into small, even pieces before heating.
• Use a spatula to gently press down the toppings so they stick well.
• Try swapping the peppermint extract for orange or almond extract for a different flavor twist.
• Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness and crispness.

Storage

Store the peppermint bark in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks. To keep it fresh longer, refrigerate for up to a month. Before serving, bring it back to room temperature to soften slightly. Avoid freezing, as this can cause the chocolate to bloom or lose its texture.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use other types of chocolate?

Yes, you can substitute semi-sweet or dark chocolate for the milk chocolate if preferred. Just be mindful of the peppermint extract amount, as darker chocolate has a stronger flavor.

How do I prevent the chocolate layers from mixing?

Make sure the milk chocolate layer is slightly set but still tacky before adding the white chocolate. Working quickly helps create distinct layers without blending.

Chocolate Layers

• 16 oz. chopped milk chocolate, milk chocolate candy melts, or milk chocolate chips
• 16 oz. chopped white chocolate, white candy melts, or white chocolate chips
• 1/4 tsp peppermint extract

Toppings

• Pepperidge Farm Snoopy Goldfish Peppermint Cocoa Grahams

Instructions

1. Melt Milk Chocolate: Melt the milk chocolate in the microwave or over a double boiler until smooth and creamy. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract until fully combined. Spread the melted milk chocolate evenly onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Allow it to sit until it’s soft and tacky but not fully set, ensuring the next layer will adhere properly.
2. Melt White Chocolate: Melt the white chocolate using the microwave or double boiler method. Spread the warm white chocolate over the milk chocolate layer while the milk chocolate is still tacky. This helps the two layers stick together for easy breaking later.
3. Add Toppings: Immediately sprinkle the white chocolate layer with the Pepperidge Farm Snoopy Goldfish Peppermint Cocoa Grahams, tiny marshmallow bits, crushed candy canes, peppermint Andes mint bits, peppermint mini marshmallows, and assorted Christmas sprinkles to create a festive and textured bark topping.
4. Set and Break: Let the bark set at room temperature for about one hour or until completely hardened. Once set, break into irregular pieces for serving or gifting.

• Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
• For best results, do not let the milk chocolate fully harden before adding the white chocolate layer to ensure good adhesion.
• You can substitute the candy toppings based on availability or preferences.
• Store the peppermint bark in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
• This recipe does not require refrigeration unless your environment is very warm.
