I made this last week and I actually didn’t have the peppermint flavoring and I thought it was too sweet. Next time I would add the peppermint flavoring and I think it would be better, I’ll let you know when I try it! :)? Got lots of compliments though.?
Crushed candy canes, to yield 1 cup (about 12 canes)
2 pounds white chocolate
1 teaspoon Peppermint flavoring
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 flavoring at this point if desired.) Pour mixture onto a cookie sheet layered with parchment or waxed paper (or a lightly buttered cookie sheet) and place in the refrigerator for 45 minutes or until firm. Remove from cookie sheet and break into pieces (like peanut brittle.)

Hi Jenni,
I’m missing your great recipes! Any ideas for Valentines?
Hi LaTeaDah, thanks for stopping by, I just commented on your side bar on your blog. Very cute site by the way! Did you make all those aprons? Oh my, they are so cute, I’ve been trying to make a patchwork apron but I put it away for awhile, I loved the one you posted, so cute!
Valentines, haven’t given it much thought :) Trying not to over do it on the sweets as my husband and I are trying to start an exercise program! But maybe I’ll find something with not too many calories :) Thanks for the comment, I’ve missed my blog, it’s good to have it working again!
Hi Jenni! I read your comments on my blog (Gracious Hospitality). Thanks for visiting! Yes, I’ve been here before (enjoyed your holiday baking recipes and pictures — very nice) but I probably didn’t comment.
I didn’t make the aprons — they were a real ‘find’ on eBay. They were sold in a ‘lot’ and didn’t look too appealing so went for a very good price. But, once washed, dried, and starched, I was delighted to find they were basically new and in excellent condition! My favorites are the patchworks.
So glad to meet you! I love the picture of your kiddos cooking there at the top of your page. Very nice family!
