    Easy, easy, easy!! This is a delicious treat for the kids. We did not use extract and it turned out very yummy and with the appropriate consistency. This recipe added a special touch for the kids' Christmas. Thank you for the easy recipe:-

    This recipe had a very good flavor, but my bark came out a little dry. It was also way too thick. It came out like a brick. Will try again some time and thin it out more.

    This recipe was very simple and a great hit! I split it into 2 batches and used Ghiradelli white baking chips in both. I used a Godiva vanilla white chocolate bar in one and a Ghiradelli bar in the other, with 5 crushed candy canes in each batch. I also added about 1/2 tsp of Peppermint extract to each. One batch I added a handful of dried cranberries, the other sliced almonds. I drizzled milk chocolate on some as well. Thanks Paula!

    This was my first attempt to make any kind of chocolate bark. After a couple of tries, I learned something very useful. Some extracts have alcohol and other additives in them. If you don't use a pure extract oil, it will cause any chocolate to seize up and become a thick, grainy and unusable glob. Also adding a teaspoon or two of Crisco shortening to the melting chocolate gives the bark a more luxurious texture. I ended up adding only the crushed candy canes (got a lovely result using a food processor to the surface of the chocolate --- the final result was both beautiful and tasty. A great recipe to begin one's adventures into making bark candy!

    This is a fast and easy recipe for the holidays. I highly recommend adding the 1/2 tsp peppermint extract -- it doesn't overpower at all. I mixed half of the candy cane chunks into the chocolate before pouring, and sprinkled the remaining half on top for a pretty look.

    I made this recipe this year for Christmas gifts and everyone loved it. I recommend adding peppermint pieces and holiday nonpareils to the top before putting it into the refrigerator. It makes it very festive looking.

    Just in reference to the comment below, for peppermint flavoring your best bet is peppermint extract, you won't run into any troubles with consistency with it. Also, I think this is so much better if you add a layer of dark chocolate underneath the white chocolate to counter-balance the super sweet white chocolate. Try it and you won't be disappointed.

    a 5 for the second try! Where it said add peppermint flavoring if you wanted...do not add peppermint schnaaps! it turned it right into a large lump of white chocolate-- it lost all the smoothness- there was no consistency and it wouldn't reheat to soften...had to chuck it! that being said- the second try was the best- came out perfect- I hope my error helps someone else!
