Peppermint Chocolate Bars

Written By Angela Zahn

Mint chocolate would have to be my husband’s absolute favourite, so it feels only fitting to make this Peppermint Chocolate Bark as a sweet Father’s Day treat.

Made with just two kinds of peppermint chocolate bars, it’s refreshingly minty, perfectly crispy and oh-so-simple. This no-bake wonder looks impressive but takes only minutes to make.  Perfect as a festive homemade gift, a quick dessert or a little after-dinner indulgence to keep in the fridge.

  3. Pour the melted chocolate onto the prepared tray and spread evenly with a spatula.
  4. Sprinkle over the chopped peppermint chocolate bars, pressing them lightly into the chocolate so they set in place.

Notes

Top Tips

  • Peppermint lovers’ dream: Use any mint chocolate bars you like.  Peppermint Crisp, Mint Pattie, Aero Peppermint, or Lindt Mint work beautifully.
  • Festive twist: Add crushed candy canes on top for a Christmas twist.
  • Double chocolate: Swirl through white chocolate for a marbled look.
  • Extra crunch: Sprinkle with crushed biscuits, Oreos, green or white M&Ms or crushed nuts.
  • Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
