I first made this in 2006. Ever since, this has become like a tradition during the holidays. It is an easy way to make the holidays more festive. This recipe is from Ms.Paula Deen of Food Network.
Difficulty level: Easy
Preparation time: 5 min
Cooking time: 10 min
Inactive/ setting time: 45 min
Makes: 2 lbs. of candy
Ingredients:
White chocolate: 2 lbs.(about 1 kg.)
Candy canes, crushed: 1- 1 1/4 cups
Peppermint extract(optional)
Place candy canes in a plastic bag and hammer into 1/4-inch chunks or smaller. Melt the chocolate in a double-boiler. Combine candy cane chunks with chocolate (add peppermint flavouring at this point, if desired). Pour mixture onto a cookie sheet layered with parchment or wax paper and place in the refrigerator for 45 minutes until firm. Remove from cookie sheet and break into pieces (like peanut brittle).
