Preparation

  3. Pour the melted chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it into an even layer.

  5. Melt the vanilla almond bark in a similar manner.
  6. Once melted, pour the almond bark over the set milk chocolate layer and spread evenly.

Notes

Store the Peppermint Bark in an airtight container. It can be kept at room temperature for up to two weeks. For longer storage, refrigerate but let come to room temperature before serving for best flavor. Use a heavy-duty rolling pin to crush the peppermints for even pieces.
