Ingredients

  • Chocolate bars 3 bars, 4 oz each: dark chocolate, milk chocolate, and white chocolate
  • Crushed candy canes go as light or heavy with that peppermint flavor
  • Mini marshmallows
  • Hot cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 175 F. Line a 9x13 size baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Prep Ingredients: Unwrap and place candy canes in a zip lock bag. Take rolling pin (any other suggested tool) to crush candy canes into small pieces. Set aside.

  3. Unwrap the dark, milk (or semi sweet chocolate), and white chocolate bars and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a fitted rectangular shape. Place in oven for 5-6 mins.

  4. Swirl all the chocolate with a toothpick until it looks marbled to your liking.

  5. Sprinkle crushed candy canes and mini marshmallows over the chocolate while it's still warm and melty so they stick to and sink into the chocolate.
  6. Refrigerate for at least an hour or more if you wish- until completely set. Break into piece
